A good sign of a health of a project is a good infusion of hard cash. And nothing shows off money like a sexy web site redesign. The new site looks badass. I also love the new tag line “Grails – The search is over” Yeah! I got let you guys know what I’ve been doing in Grails lately, some cool things with Google Maps API. I feel really good about the prospect for today’s street programmer. So many good choices out there. We’ll talk.

I picked up 2 rails books this weekend:
Google Maps Applications with Rails and AJAX (Apress)
Ruby on Rails: Up and Running (O’reilly)

I met this programmer out of Stanford that does Java web dev for his day Gig but
really loves RoR for his own stuff. I admit when he started denigrating Java in favor of Ruby I just
wanted to punch him in the throat. But then I figured , wtf, maybe it is time for this dinosaur to learn a new dance.
