Michelangelo van Dam has a new post to his blog today with an example of using the Zend_Service_Twitter component of the Zend Framework to set up a simple Twitter client to connect and grab the latest tweets from an account.

When running a website for yourself or your company based on Zend Framework, you might want to show the Twitter messages to your audience.

Although the Zend Framework manual extensively describes how to set up a true Twitter application with the new OAuth implementation of Twitter using Zend_

We're about to launch a new product, and this time it's pretty client-side-intense. The application is powered by a lot of JavaScript(-mvc) and jQuery, which do xhr calls to a ZF/CouchDB powered backend.

Yep, it's the third week of the month again- and you know what that means: Zend Framework Monthly Bughunt!

This Thursday, Friday and Saturday of August (the 19th, 20th and 21st 2010), we'll be hosting our monthly bug hunt.

For those of you unfamiliar with the event, each month, we organize the community to help reduce the number of open issues reported against the framework.

Yep, it's the third week of the month- you know what that means: Zend Framework Monthly Bughut! This Thursday, Friday and Saturday of July (the 15th, 16th and 17th 2010), we'll be hosting our monthly bug hunt.

For those of you unfamiliar with the event, each month, we organize the community to help reduce the number of open issues reported against the framework.

A week ago , Zend Framework held its monthly bug hunt days. During our monthly bug hunts, we try to get contributors to focus on closing out issues in the issue tracker , in order to improve the overall quality of the project.

Each month, we offer the contributor who assists in closing the most issues an official Zend Framework t-shirt.

This month, php|architect also sponsored 1-year subscriptions to the top 3 contributors, upping the incentive for contributions.

There's a new post to the Zend Developer Zone about this month's Zend Framework Bug Hunt Days happening at the end of this week - the 17th and 18th of December.

As Thomas Weidner mentions in a new blog post, starting with the 1.10 release of the Zend Framework there'll be a new component to help with compressing and decompressing files - Zend_Filter_Compress/Decompress.

Federico has continued his look at his alternative to the Zend_Controller component of the Zend Framework - Zf_Controller in this new part of the series focusing on routing.
