After small timeout I found a time to put some notes for the last Rails meeting in Kobe .

Sometimes StikiPad is down (specially when i need my notes ;) ), so like a work around will try to duplicate all notes on the self-hosted Junebug -powered wiki . For the related discussions there is a Beast -powered forum . Hahahah © Powered by RoR site a ;) The only missing part is maybe Mephisto for blogging. Or I can use my homemade Restolog when it’s ready.

Gmail for your domain just rocks! After 1 or 2 weeks of waiting you can have the latest on the web 2.0 email market for your own domain (personal or the company one). I already have my Gmail-based family webmail ;) Still moving the whole stuff from the @gmail accounts is in front…Hope there is some tool for easy transfer between accounts – emails, labels, filters etc.

Yesterday (15-Oct) recieved invitation from a friend of mine and visited a Design Matters meeting in Shinsaibashi. Thanks to Garr Reynolds for keeping it up and running. It is one of the not so much english speaking computer related events around. Was happy to be there.

The meeting was a little different from the usual ones. This time the presentation, by the cute Joelle Bacic, was about creating own music with “GarageBand”. Everybody was very excited after the presentation. It seemed so easy to compose your own electronic music, that maybe everybody thought like me “Ok, I can do it too” ;)

After that there was a small “nomikai” and chat with different people. I’m waiting forward for the next meeting on 12-December-2005, the last for this year.

Yesterday a switched my blog to Typo. Still running on high port until I figure how to use DAV and iCal features with lighttpd. During the installation I found a very good page with pointers to Ruby related blogs – TypoPowered . In general the page is about Typo-powered sites, but who are using Typo? Right, the people interested from Ruby and RoR ;) So lot of useful information on Typo-powered blogs.

Other good pointers:

• Few tips on running Rails on TextDrive—have very good hints for RoR optimization
• More light-weight server management . In fact the whole scottstuff blog is very helpful – several articles about page caching, apache optimizations for RoR etc.

Also before 1-2 days a decided to try Hatena – Japanese social online service – diaries, bookmarks etc. So I started ZHlog weblog there. But now I’m confused – which blog to use for what?
