those beautiful trees
Posted on November 19, 2006, by admin, under Blog, Other, Web.
TheFairest.info is a project to try to find the prettiest image in the world, using voting and some (hopefully clever) algorithms.
All images are user-submitted and so far it’s looking quite good.
I recommend taking a look because some of these images are breath taking and also make beautifully desktops.
So check out the images here.
Meanwhile, these are my two favourite images.

Conferences not to miss
Posted on November 15, 2006, by admin, under Blog, Events.
So much events going around the world, I thought I should round up a few of them for easely distracted people (like me). :P
First off, if you’re interested in Ruby on Rails then take a look at the Rails Hispana Conference which is going to take place on the 24 and 25th of November in Madrid, a very nice town to go site seeing too. Or why not visit Paris? There’s also a Ruby on Rails conference on the 17th November with support from IBM and Telecom Italica and you could also check the Eifel Tower in the weekend, both these conferences cost 60 euros so that’s pretty cheap.
Not related to Rails directly but if you’re interested in web development then you can’t miss the Future of Web Apps 2007 in London, it’s on the 20 to 22nd of February but registrations are now open and will problably sell out fast because there’s alot of great speakers in the lineup coming from companies like Google, Yahoo, Amazon, Digg, Moo, you name it.
Did I miss anything coming in the next months? Which events are you hoping forward to go?

Gadget of the Year
Posted on November 11, 2006, by admin, under Blog, Web.
Time Magazine is allowing people to vote for the “Gadget of the year” award for this year.
Among the many contenders there’s two Apple products like the Macbook Pro and the Nike+Ipod Sport kit running for victory, although the competition is though. The Nintendo DS is another favorite of the competition but until the end everything can change.
So, cast your vote and pick your favorite gadget, I’ve already voted for the Nintendo DS of course. ;)
