Status update.

leave a comment

It's been awhile since I last wrote here. Quite a lot happened in the meantime.

I now work at a really nice russian company named Getalime. It's small, very friendly and cozy. Funny thing is that 2 weeks after joining it I moved to live in Israel, so I never met any of my coworkers =)

I've been involved in a lot of Rails (and even one Merb) projects. My first patch has been accepted to the Rails core. I'm one of the two first russian regular ruby podcasters, with 100+ RSS subscribers and around 400 listeners of each episode. I'm not sure if it's a lot or not, but I'm happy anyway =)

Now I've decided that it was about time to revive this blog, and so I will try! See you soon, i hope.

WordPress migration.

leave a comment

Well, yes. I've done it. I betrayed ruby and rails, and migrated the blog to WordPress.

Mephisto is a nice try, but it's not as useable and powerful as the big player in blogging.

My boss said I should write my own blog in SmallTalk, which I'll probably do one day, but it's much longer to do than adding WordPress to my nginx+php-fastcgi setup =)

PS: I'll add feed redirection a bit later, for now no one will notice the migration for now
