A very interesting read. What is it that makes a computer app stand out? What makes your app special, and how does that really benefit your users?

Today I had the good fortune to run into two interesting blogs that I enjoyed reading. The first one is The adventures of the Accordion Guy, the blog of Joey deVilla, who in wikipedia features as an accordionist, and who I had never heard of before. I particularly enjoyed these two posts.
The other is Let The Good Times Roll by Guy Kawasaki, who I also had never heard of before. He had some very good advice about schmoozing and emails. Thanks Guy!
What are your favorite blogs?

The time has finally come for me to jump on the Rails-wagon and learn Ruby on Rails. I will document here my efforts to port the fabulous Gregarius feed aggregator to Ruby. I admit this is not a tutorial for the complete novices, and definitely of no use to a seasoned Rails developer, unless they enjoy a good laugh. In particular, I am assuming that you have glanced at the standard tutorials here and here, as well as Amy Hoy’s wonderful list of articles on her site. I am sure there are other worthwhile tutorials out there, and you can probably find them documented at the wiki.
So to recap, I am assuming that you have Ruby and Rails installed and you have two terminal windows open, as well as your favorite editor ready to work on any file in the directory we are about to create, and of course your favorite browser open, so that we can view our results. Also keep in mind that whatever is presented here is my view on things, and it might very well be incomplete/inaccurate. Please feel free to correct me. This might also be an opportune moment to have a look at the Gregarius source code, to have some idea what we are trying to replicate. Of course for now we’ll only do some small bits of the overall monster.
Ready? Alright then, on with the show!
