That was quick

I was going to blog about helping out making a couchdb store for extjs but my friend Shawn Garbett beat me to it. You can check out the code, with examples, here. Check it out.

It's been a while.

Like the title says, it's been a while. Some things have gone down at work that have kept me busy and I've neglected my blog. So, let me try and give some love to it. Here are some tidbits of what I've been playing around with.

First, Merb looks better and better every day. I highly suggest you take a look at it if you are interested in web frameworks. Also, datamapper just came out with 0.9 release. It's a pretty cool ORM and works well with Merb. Again, check it out. You can find both on github.

Lately, though, I've been really impressed by a project called couchdb. It's a totally different way of thinking about databases. I've been working with a friend to make an ExtJS datastore that ties into a couchdb record. I should be able to post some code soon and give more info then. Until then, you've got some reading to do.
