Mongrel 1.1.1

This one (Mongrel onepointonepointone ) is just a little bug fix, fixing the Mongrel 1.1 mongrel_rails restart bug. Mongrel is a web server, that is cooler than a brick, and if you have used TomCat in the past, or heard of TomCat, you might understand the inside joke (TomCat vs. Mongrel (Dog)).

Most of the cool people who understand this stuff (wink, wink), are letting the cat out of the bag, because a dog is man’s best friend. But this really not really not a cat-fight, or even Cat vs. Dog fight, since even the guy who wrote TomCat has switched to Mongrel.

Update 10-Apr-2008Mongrel foot prints lead here now.

30 Boxes - The Best Web Calendar?

Several months ago I was raving about 30 boxes - the calendar web-tool, todo list manager, and social networking thing. Then I quit using 30 boxes because I started using google calendar.

Just thought you might like to know that 30 boxes is still very cool, and they added a bunch of cool features since the last time I checked.

30 boxes is a very cool web-calendar system. The only thing I don’t like about 30 boxes is having to log in — and it’s not their fault. Sometimes I am too lazy to login to a website for a few weeks. Some people are more pragmatic than me, and will keep trying things until they find something that fits their lifestyle. Google makes it easier (to login to the calendar), since all the google apps are moving toward a common login or common ID for all the google apps.

Then along comes the Open-ID project to make it easier to sign in to all web applications from one common ID management system. We’ll see if Open-ID catches on.
