Hi all,

I've been using PHP for a while now but I haven't actually used PEAR. I
have just read half a chapter in a book, it sounds alright but haven't
actually used it. I was just wondering, is it really necessary to use
PEAR? I usually get things done using PHP/MySQL. I don't know if I'm
really missing out on something by not using PEAR. How highly is it
recommended? On most job ads, i don't even see them mentioning PEAR.
They mostly just say PHP/MySQL.. Why is that? Don't people like PEAR
much?

Thanks
Ben
