One of the key restrictions with the Twitter API is that any client IP address can only make x number of API calls per hour. If you’re making these API calls from your web server (which obviously only a static IP address), you could quickly use up your hourly allocation on a busy site. Twitter does allow you to “whitelist” your web application to give you a better hourly rate, but here’s a better way: Use the clients, ie your users, to make the API calls from their browsers.

One of the main things I've enjoyed since starting to use CakePHP is the ease in which a developer can create reusable code, and also keep things organized and readable in your code. There are so many components available that make adding great functionality to a site so easy. However, working on an eCommerce site recently I noticed there didn't seem to be much in the way of payment processing (or else I just didn't look hard enough). Anyway, I put together an Authorize.net component to help abstract payment processing in a site and make it easier to get and use all the response codes from Authorize.net payment gateway.

This article discusses the extension in detail, introducing you to its key functions and showing you how to rotate, resample, transform, crop, carve, and otherwise mangle your images until they roll over and beg for mercy. So come on in, and bring your evil laughter with you!

The ability to drag and drop content on a page and have it save the order can make for a great user interface and is actually relatively easy to execute with a few lines of jQuery. You’ll need to include the jQuery user interface library which you can find here: Jquery Google API. All the files needed to get this up and running are in the download at the bottom of this post.
