PDO seems like the default choice since it more or less comes with PHP5. And since it is written in C, it seems like a fast choice.

Creole looks interesting, but if both offer the same functionality, PDO seems like the better choice simply b/c it's C based and should be a faster.

I've heard of Propel. It's an ORM toolkit for PHP, and I guess I don't know what to think of those yet. I like writing my own SQL and it seems like doing so is most efficient. Anything that has complex relationships seems like it is a hard match for these. Or maybe I just haven't dug deep enough yet.

Thanks for those.  I think I may run with PDO and see how it goes.
