I found out a good tool to make slide shows without having to use a program such as PowerPoint or OpenOffice presentation, called Slidy.
You only have to include a JavaScript file, and optionally, a CSS in order to define different classes. All what you need is a basic [X]HTML/CSS knowledge, and go ahead! It even accepts keys shortcut. If your browser doesn’t support JavaScript, your presentation will be embedded into one Web page.
However, there was a bad news! it’s about SQLite, the fastest database ever.
I wanted to export my fortunes files to an SQLite file. It supports UTF-8 and I could convert text to data without any problem; but SQLite 2 was not that fast. I have some 90000 fortunes in the database with the size of 45 MB; requesting a random fortune is so slow.
With SQLite 3, there’s relatively less trouble, as the database’s size is 24 MB, but PHP doesn’t support the SQLite 3 as the latest version of the PECL module was updated in 2004.
Too bad, I expected a better performance.
 
During the tests, I was listening to Nana Mouskouri, María Dolores, so nice song, so sublime voice and so splendid music!
