Living in code

My work @ Symantec is going really well and is incredibly gratifying, but i'm really excited because i'm working on some extra-curricular projects using Ruby on Rails again. My last web development project was a PHP-based mess that I inherited from non-coders who had hacked together a social networking site. The job was fun, but mostly because of the people, not the technology. Building site with Rails is almost too easy and on top of it all, its really fun! I love coding Ruby because it is the only language that I actually guess at syntax and usually end up being right. Ruby is that intuitive. Ok, enough gushing. Here is a list of Rails plugins i'm using in this new project that i love

• SimpleCaptcha - A really simple, easy to integrate CAPTCHA plugin for Rails
• acts_as_taggable on Steroids - make any object taggable
• acts_as_commentable - make any object commentable
• acts_as_authenticated - secure authentication on rails
• acts_as_attachment - file uploads for rails
