Ever since I been to Pixel Eye Germany I have not found anything better for a visual resource. It has some really good work and till this day I am still amazed. It’s good stuff. Check it out. www.pixeleyegermany.de

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

String.class_eval {
  define_method(:translate_to) do |lang|
    text = case lang
           when :spanish
           "Buenos Dias, Como estas hoy?"
           when :english
           "Good Morning, How are you today?"
           else
           "I don't speak any other language."
           end
  end
}

puts "Sentence".translate_to :spanish
# => Prints out "Buenos Dias, Como estas hoy?"

puts "Sentence".translate_to :english
# => Prints out "Good Morning, How are you today?"

puts "Setenece".translate_to :portuguese
# => Prints out "I don't speak any other language."

puts "Sentence"
# => Prints out "Sentence"

So while messing round I made this in Ruby… I’m not sure if it is considered meta programming? Well, it’s just adding a method to the String class. I get confused when to consider things to be meta programming.. Maybe I over think about it.

So I received an invite for heroku a while ago. I never really used it. Want an invite to check out heroku.com? I have many invites to give away. Want one? just leave your email and I will send you one your way!

Dreamhost now supports mod_rails Passanger.

Citywaboo.com - What can I say about this place? First off it’s a cool place the people are good people. Lot’s of memories of good laughs and pizza for lunch and then there was Christmas Dinner at a brazilian restaurant. I remember my very first day at the office, it was different just listening to a different language being spoken, Armenian, I think it was the very first time I have ever heard that language and I was like “uh, what are they saying….” but I picked up a few words. I meet many people many sales people and a few programmers, good ones and horrible ones.

I think to myself and say wow, I have done so much work and this website was largely done by me. I’m not taking all the credit for the site, but to think about it I really did lot’s of the work, and it was practically rewritten once from it’s original code-base which I also was a part of… 

Overall, I feel happy with everything I have done.

As life goes on, I will officially be leaving citywaboo.com on May 16, 2008
( Feb 2006 - May 2008). It’s been a great ride and thanks to everyone at citywaboo.com for everything. Really, I mean that.

Thanks.
