I get way too excited about simple things. For example, I don’t understand programing languages. I can’t code. I can’t tell you what a piece of code does. About all I know is what the bold and italic HTML code looks like. I can find, copy, and paste.
This does not stop me from constantly checking out sites like Rails Rumble, a Ruby on Rails competition. There is something fascinating about something so deceptively simple that you want it to be useful. Even if very often it isn’t.
I am currently toying with Jot.ly, one of the featured apps on the Rails Rumble page. With its Zen-like take on blogging (yes, even more so than Tumblr), anyone can get up and running and launch some text, code, quote or otherwise out into the world.
While I am not ready to jump ship, I am fascinated with development of the site thus far. I can find a use for a site like this. Meeting notes, small projects, mutli-twitter repository. It will be used, I am sure.
