About
Seems almost like the guildford four (or was it the guildford six). Well it’s not that. It is that i’am first and foremost a father. I could start 4 blogs for each of them but I will not bother you with that. There is nothing more boring than talking ’bout kids if you don’t have any yourself.
This blog is about my experiences in developing a rails application from scratch, good and bad experiences that is. Mostly they are good, the bad ones will probably be due to myself, me not understanding web2.0 and spending to much time on digg.com. If you haven’t a clue about what is rails, get out, go away..
Being father is the first on my list, where as developing and deploying a rails application is way down. In between the parental duties and rails is (in alphabetical order)
- analyst
- db designer
- husband
- product manager
- project leader
- self employed
So what can you learn here. It’s simple: if such a busy person, like me, succeeds in learning ruby/rails from scratch, in designing and building an online community website, either I’m extremely smart or -the more likely alternative- this rails thing is realy realy productive.
Let me tell you some of the things I do, as they are happening, who knows you might find it helpful. I even think that somebody someday might read this. Would I even get a comment or 2?
And Yes, in case you’re wondering, my wife loves me, my children love me, the people from my team will love me some day when they grow up…
