Sorry about all the RSS goofiness. I managed to complete bork the site and had to redo a batch of things, which didn't do the feeds any good. Not that I've had much luck tracking down the original issue.

  • Rails vs. Django - There's a link here to a Django screencast that I probably should find the time to watch, though overall it confirms my suspicion that the two frameworks are largely equivalent in terms of productivity.

  • Softies on Rails Interviews: Menuism - It's certainly nice for me to read at this point stories of people who walked away from Microsoft to do Rails development.

  • File Upload Fu - Mike Clark discusses handling image file uploads in a Rails app.

  • Lighthouse - Rails issue tracking app from the Mephisto creators, coming soon.

  • TextMate: Power Editing for the Mac - Book from Pragmatic Bookshelf, now released. If I did want to become a TextMate expert, this would probably be a good investment.

  • Capistrano 1.4.1 - A minor update to the deployment utility that goes along with Rails.

  • Our ActiveRecord book ...and YOU! - There's a book all about ActiveRecord coming. You can go make suggestions about what you'd like to see covered.
