My latest web project, the relaunch of professional photographer Spencer Brown's website, has just gone live! Built on the wonderful Radiant CMS with a bunch of extensions. I heavily relied on the gallery extension by Andrea Franz. Great work, man! The design is pretty sleak, too.
Have a look!

Long time, no post. I finally took the time and launched a little web project of my own - a rails-based VIN (Vehicle Identification Numbers) decipher for vintage US muscle cars. Just got tired of looking up codes in list scattered across the Internet. Support for makes is limited right now (Chevy only but who cares about Ford anyway?) but you should definitely still
check it out.

Its finally done! The Global Education Safaris website went life yesterday! My main tasks were to come up with a design and then implement the website, which mainly meant turning the mockups into HTML code and customizing Radiant CMS to our needs Global Education Safaris specializes in private customized safaris to East Africa for clients interested in gaining a deeper understanding of global development issues such as education, health, environment and development themes.
See for yourself!

I recently came across
Merb, a new Ruby-based MVC framework like
Rails. Since I'm always eager to try out new technologies and it sounded good, I took a look at their sample application called MrBlog. It has, however, been developed using an early version of Merb and not updated since. So I put a couple hours of work into it to make it run on merb 0.41 with merb_activerecord 0.4.3 and activerecord 2.0.1. If you also want to test drive Merb and are looking for sample app, you can
check out "my version" of MrBlog from my
SVN repository.

After successfully launching the Personal Financial Planning workshop as pilot boot camp (see earlier post) a survey was developed to find out what workshops in particular are of interest to the local community. The survey was then implemented as a web application.
Open survey.
