sev | I'm very impressed

This will mean litle unless you write software, but:

Time elapsed from initial ruby install to a fully-functional rss aggregator in rails: less than 2 days. I'm impressed.

I'd show it to you, except I still need to upgrade my ancient apache install so I can turn on proxying so you can see it from outside my firewall. If that turns out to take longer than the two days it took to install the framework & code the application in the first place, well, I'll just go ahead and punch a hole through the firewall.

and: now paying half the price for twice the bandwidth. yay for upgrading my dsl. Boo for overpaying for two years.
