A Fresh Cup is Mike Gunderloy's software development weblog, covering Ruby on Rails and whatever else I find interesting in the universe of software. I'm a full-time Rails developer and contributor, available for long- or short-term consulting, with solid experience in working as part of a distributed team. If you'd like to hire me, drop me a line. I'm also the author of Rails Rescue Handbook and Rails Freelancing Handbook.

Double Shot #7

In which the intrepid author continues exploring new realms of software.

  • Getting into TextMate - Pointers to a bunch of resources for making better use of the TextMate editor. This is one of those tools that I know I will never really master, master-of-none that I am.

  • FiveRuns - A Web-hosted systems monitoring solution. This one is built on Rails and features specific monitoring hooks for Rails applications. I know from my time at MCP, though, that this sort of product is a hard sell compared to in-house monitoring solutions; monitoring is not the sort of thing that most IT departments want to outsource.
