romey nows run on edge rails.
It started with me trying the scope_out plugin as suggested by Ryan Bate’s awesome railscasts, episode 76. Then I read about named_scope from Ryan Daigle. named_scope is previously known as the has_finder gem so I decided to give the gem a go. After I started using it I decided to pistonise romey with edge rails to save myself the trouble of migrating from...
Nice tumblr features
The archive view. Also we can starting tagging and I saw them mentioned comments.

Didn’t know I got mentioned in that blog :)
Firefox 3 (I installed beta 4) seems faster than Firefox 2 but still slower than Safari.
Found a website that doesn’t work very well in Safari though… my modem admin page LOL.

After Steelpixel transferred my hosting plan over to Railsplayground, I still have hosting up to end of 2009.
I haven’t been using it since the rollover and I am getting tempted to start using it again. Tumblr has been serving me well but there are some features that I would like, e.g. tagging. If I am using my own host then I will have more control. I can even reinstate my SoloWiki.

I am liking Safari more and more now. It’s so damn fast. Firefox has 1 last advantage for me and that is plugins for developers. But I think I’ll switch daily browsing to Safari for a while and see how it goes.
“All software has bugs, no matter what the licence”
That reminded me how naive one of the developer I was in the meeting claiming that there are no bugs in their system. LOL.
