Campfire for Design & Keeping Your Tag Cloud Running
October 31st, 2007 — 4:28 pm —I’m not usually into regurgitating links but two blog posts today that really caught my eye.
Behind the scenes at 37signals: Design
The post goes into some detail (and it’s supposedly the first in a series) about how Campfire helps the folks at 37signals with their design work. I was struck by how similar it is to how Chris and I use AIM. Though they’re passing files around and we don’t really do that. I had forgotten the subversion integration. I had tried to use Pyro for a bit but it lost out to ol’ reliable, AIM.
Keeping Your Tag Cloud Running: Intro
A post by John Nunemaker over at RailsTips.org. Looks like it’s the first in a series of posts on managing a growing Rails site. Nitty gritty server stuff which looks really cool. It’s inspired me to try to give a more abridged look at what we’re doing. There is some stuff (e.g. back-ups) which are magically taken care of for us by the technical elves in the data center so we don’t have info on it.
Considering it’s Halloween should I have said “ghouls and ghosts” rather than “elves”? Happy Halloween :)
