When deciding on how to open this blog and what the first post should be, I didn’t have to think for very long – it could only really be one thing… “Hello World!”.

Working in the software development industry I’ve probably written “Hello World!” code in many languages, among them BASIC, Visual Basic, Java, C++ and even MS Access (VBA). Ironically, the language I use on a daily basis, PHP, is not one of them so I’d like to take this opportunity to correct that anomaly now:

<?php 
echo("Hello World!");
?>

And to officially open this blog, in the language of the web – HTML:

<h5>Hello World!</h5>

or:

Hello World!
