I also prefer array_key_exists - mostly due to being exactly what I need 
when I use it (checking for a key, though I recall seeing somewhere 
(sorry no source, but should be easy enough to test), that isset is 
somewhat faster than array_key_exists.

Anyways, I like the article, but I noticed 2 errors.

You forgot an "I" in "mplementations" in the 2nd paragraph.

And you have an extra closing parentheses in one of your early examples:
[11] if ($_GET["q"])) {  // <-- Extra Closing Paren.
[12]     throw new InvalidInputException("You must specify a query");
[13] }

Have a great weekend NYPHP!
