After months of promises I finally got around to learning the basics of RoR and created this simple blog. It's still very much a work in progress, a bit ugly in parts and lots and lots more to do but I'm kinda proud of it... it's my baby.
It exploits restful_authentication and the acts_as_state thingy plugins. I've yet to 'hamalise' it integrate a decent WYSIWYG editor (recommendations please?) RSS feeds etc etc blah blah... and there's lots and lots more tutorials to read blood sweat and tears to shed not to mention elbow-grease... but it's a starter-for-10.
Any professional RoR developers fancy offering adhoc advice along the way it would be greatly appreciated. Any feedback on attempt number 1 (?) - be gentle please.
I should also thank Matt (Invincible) Beedle for his patience and understanding. I owe him at least 3 beers and a bottle of sambuca for his help so far.
