To be really explicit, name the thing "Services_Technorati" and name the class "Services_Technorati" :). The PHP_Parser package is an example of this kind of switch. The first release 0.1 was php4-compatible. The upcoming release makes use of PHP_ParserGenerator and is therefore PHP5+. I didn't change the name of the package or class, just the contents. Greg
