I know this has nothing, well almost nothing, to do with Internet-related business but I’m so impressed with this site and its founders that I just had to write about it.
For those of you who may not know of it, Rails is a web development framework built using the programming language Ruby. The framework is popularly known as Ruby on Rails.
I’ve finally found some time, after almost a year of trying, to get into learning Rails. As a web developer and programmer it’s important for me to:
- Keep up with the latest technology in web development to build my own projects and projects for clients;
- And to keep up with the technology so I know what’s possible when I’m thinking of, or developing, a new Internet-based business.
Anyway, in my quest to learn Rails, I found the site www.buildingwebapps.com, created by Mike Slater and Christopher Haupt the founders of Collective Knowledge Works, Inc. a web development agency in the US.
