Ruby web frameworks

I've blogged about Rails. Seems like everyone is, these days.

There's also Borges (which website is startlingly bereft of information), and Wee, and IOWA, which is not new, but I am so I didn't know about it. And probably others I don't know about yet.

Links in a vacuum aren't very useful. Hopefully, I'll make time to try some of these out. In the meantime, please feel free to comment.

Recap of the October meeting

The October meeting actually took place in November. Jason talked a little bit about Qt bindings for Ruby. Shashank talked a little bit about RubyConf. I talked a little bit about Croquet, which led to me and Shashank trying to explain Smalltalk to Jason. Shashank demoed (sort of) the proposed new runtime for Ruby (YAVM?). Jason left with a simplistic explanation of what Rails is; Shashank left with instructions for how to convert Postscript files to PDFs; and I left with the feeling that, while Java pays the mortgage, I'd have a lot more fun writing Ruby.
