Book Recommendation: The Rails Way
The Rails Way is a Ruby on Rails reference book that I bought on Josh Susser’s recommendation. I’ve actually, to my family’s dismay, been reading the darn thing instead of just referring to it like one would a, well, reference book. A lot of Rails’isms that I had a vague idea about I now understand with much more clarity. It will definitely come in handy soon.

I got a linked in email and you were on the RHS of an update (I only read the right hand sides) – and noted that you were connected to Ben Netick, whom I knew from my job at 2Bridge. Which led me to your site, which lead me to RoR.
My quick story is that I read some RoR book – and thought that concept was great, but couldn’t get past the Ruby language – something just didn’t click for me. But I didn’t give up on the concept and a few months later read Groovy and Grails – and have shifted all my development to Grails and couldn’t be happier. It is one of the biggest productivity increases I have seen in many years of software.
Hope you are doing well….
