Original Post: Relaunch of too-biased Feed Title: too-biased Feed URL: http://blog.leetsoft.com/xml/rss/ Feed Description: Read the announcement: CD Baby rewrite in Postgres and Ruby, Baby!CD Baby is going rails. This is huge! If you don’t know CD Baby, its a distribution site with over 80.000 musicians under contract and its one of the biggest digital distributors of audio to Apple iTunes, Napster, Rhapsody, etc.  Read all about it here. What is even more exciting about it is that I’m on board for the rewrite and I had chance to talk to Derek on the phone directly for a consulting session which might have played its little part in the decision to go with rails. Come monday I’ll work together with him and other rails contributor Jeremy Kemper to help crunch those 90k lines of PHP in beautifully compact code for which Rails and Ruby are known. Here is a quote from Derek’s announcement on his weblog: Like a lost soul walkin’ the earth, lookin’ for spirituality, that stumbles upon the right church with the right people at the right time, I’ve found my niche with Ruby. Its little itty-bitty community attracts some brilliant “think different” types with a love for beautiful code that do this for love, not money.

Yesterday I had some time so i decided to tackle a little project I was contemplating for a while.

Welcome typo. Typo is the smallest possible weblog. It doesn’t have an admin interface at all and its based on sqlite. It took about 6 hours to write and most of the work was put into the XMLRPC backend.

So Marsedit is the only way to get any content onto this site now and thats plenty.

As always my code is free under MIT licence and you can fetch it from my svn server at svn://leetsoft.com/typo/trunk
