Who You Calling A Jesse?

I really hate posting things like this but I don’t want to say too much about what I have been working on. Not because it is top secret or anything, just that I don’t want people to look at it until it is presentable. Instead, let me tell you about the technology I have been playing with:

• Dreamweaver, Contribute, and Photoshop CS3 – These great applications (I would have liked a UI update on the lines of other OS X pro apps but ah well, next time). The speed improvements alone make them fun to use. I have been working on some new CSS lately for a new ‘International’ web site and Dreamweaver CS3 has been so nice to me.
• Ruby on Rails – ya ya I am a big RoR convert. Not because I can code it though. I love it because I find it much easier to manage a project that is using it. We have a new Experts and Speakers application along with something else in the works and I just love rails. It is even more exciting at the moment because there is some time going into optimizing the server environment.
• Twitter – if I haven’t said it before, I will say it now… this is one addictive web app and it might actually be useful. It is a really good knowledge dump.
• BarCampWaterloo – just over two weeks until the fourth BarCamp in Waterloo. Hoping it is the biggest one yet!

…oh and Facebook is starting to get creepy. No idea why, after a year in there with a few UW folks I was comfortable hanging out. Now it just insane and insane in a way that those of you who just got to University might never understand as you haven’t lost touch with people for 10 years. That is another post ;)

Details coming on our cool app.. promise.
