York Minster Ceiling

York Minster Ceiling

Here’s a photo for those not wanting to read about technical things. It’s one of the many I took in York Minster on our recent holiday there.

I can only post old photo’s for  a short while as I’ve not made it out with my camera for the last week or two, as it’s been almost constantly raining up here on any occasion I could get out. I’m hoping to get out and take more at the start of next month.

Ruby on Rails (take 2)

Since Saturday I’ve carried on looking at Ruby on Rails and so far I’m very impressed. While reading though the first part about of Agile Web Development with Rails, I wrote a simple web application which displays some data from a single database table, requires a logged in session to change data and always has user management via the admin interface. I don’t think I could have gotten this much done in so little time (and code) in any other language.My next target to get a better understanding of the data model system and set up some inter-table relationship. In about a month or so the application may very well worth publishing.
