I’m having alot of fun at OFFF Lisbon, it’s like someone dropped a creativity bomb in Lisbon. :)

I’ve also taken some photos from the Festival which are available at Flickr, so take a look if you’re interested.

In the meantime, here’s some web development resources for this weekend.

Confused about messing with .htaccess files stored on your server? Thankfully, someone invented this handy .htaccess Editor webapp that simplifies your work.

An analysis and comparative on the various CSS Frameworks available today, my favourite is BluePrint but take a look at what satisfies your needs.

LifeHacker published some tips on Blogging, very good info on helping you blog , I should problably take the time to follow them. :)

If you’re in Lisbon enjoy the rest of the weekend, there’s alot of nice places to visit.

Intro to Ruby On Rails

May 7, 2008 Author: admin | Filed under: Blog, Programming, Web

A List Apart - a great source for information regarding web development and design - wrote 2 articles a while back talking about Ruby on Rails.

The articles are a sort of introduction and description of the pros and cons of Ruby on Rails, it’s a good reading:
Getting Started with Ruby on Rails
Creating More Using Less Effort with Ruby on Rails

It’s also worth mentioning an interview that Akita did Hongli Lai and Ninh Bui, from Phusion -

TakeOff 2008

Apr 21, 2008 Author: admin | Filed under: Blog, Events, Web

This weekend I attended the TakeOff 2008 conference in Coimbra.
The main goal is to discuss, motivate and inform people about tecnology, entrepeneurship, inovation and so on. :)
Most of the talks were very interesting and gave a good insight about the state of things here in Portugal. I had a really good time and the day seemed too short for all the great ideas and discussions which were left in the air.

I’ve uploaded my (fairly bad) photos to Flickr.
