Learning Rails

I found Learning Rails website recently. LearningRails teaches Rails by podcast. Wow, that's great. I signed up and I completed Lesson 1 today. Enjoy!

Learn something new everyday

I need to spend at least an hour each day to read and learn about something new. I am spending too much time reading meaningless blogs :( Got to stop it and spend time more effectively.

Practices of an agile developer

I watched an interesting talk on "Practices of an Agile Developer". The talk was by Dr Venkat Subramaniam, the co-author, with Andy Hunt, of the book by the same name. Very good presentation done at No Fluff Just Stuff. Enjoy!

What did you learn today?

We work in a highly evolving, constantly changing industry. Technology changes, methodology changes, tools & even people change. It is hard to keep up with these changes. Even harder when you are trying to learn about all these by yourself. Imagine the amount of knowledge you gain, if you were to learn about something, at least one thing, a day from someone you came across that day. It could be lessons in technology, leadership, even just plain simple life lesson. Let me try to document the lessons I learned each day.
