merb-auth-slice-activation progress December 8th, 2008
I have been playing around with merb-auth for an upcoming project and have had my first, very small, contribution to the community. It is a fork of CK’s original merb-auth-slice-activation, but with options to modify functionality through additional configuration parameters. You can follow, or contribute, to it over at github.

Rubyme opens its doors. August 20th, 2008
I have been working long hours getting this site up and running. The concept was initially drafted after some tutoring work I had done and the difficulty I had in coordinating everything. If you have not yet figured out, the site is called Rubyme (www.rubyme.net). The goal of the site is to provide an easy way for users to find help on anything from specific project difficulties to a more typical tutor style. Currently many of the features are still under heavy development, but the basic functionality is there. I encourage you to sign up and become a tutor. It is a great way to make some money, get exposure, and learn. There will be ongoing patches, so please report any problems to my email address: justin.smestad@gmail.com

Living on the edge with Merb July 17th, 2008
If you have ever had the urge to live life on the edge of software development, the project you should be following right now is Merb. By now if anyone has been attending or watching the ruby community podcasts then you have heard this software mentioned. The reason I suggest merb is not because I am a huge promoter of the framework (yes, some may call it my flavor of the week) but it is just so exciting to be apart of its development.
Merb has much a growing community around it that it is hard to believe suggestions are still so welcome and encouraged. I personally have weighed by two cents on a few topics in the past week and they seem to have been taken into account. To top it all off, the lead developer Ezra Zygmuntowicz has time to answer personal questions via IRC. I doubt I would ever see DHH do this for any Rails newbie.
Anyway, its time for me to get back to checking out this elegant little framework.
