I’ve searched all over for this one and if you have any insight I’d love to hear it. It turns out there’s no support for multiline comments with Ruby on Rails. I guess I should say that this isn’t even supported in plain Ruby.
A general method for debugging that I use is to comment out [...]

You see some crazy things in the city of Dallas. I’m sure we’ve all made a crack at the soccer mom driving the Hummer H2. Doing a quick Hummer search I stumbled across this funny site. Be sure to check out the poster. I’m constantly amazed at what lengths people will go [...]

Today I was busy trying to multitask on my 8125. I kept receiving out of memory errors and was pretty frustrated thinking that I already pushed my device to the limits. Luckily I stumbled across the Running Programs list in the Memory screen. You can access this by going to Start > Settings > [...]

I recently read that Pocket IE for Windows Mobile supports JavaScript 1.5. This came as a complete suprise. For some reason I thought it would be far behind its desktop counterpart. At some point I’m going to test the DOM support as well.
I decided to do a bit of testing to see what it would [...]

I normally use Eclipse and its built-in CVS support to checkout different development projects. As with most tools you’re abstracted away from the underlying commands. I recently stumbled across a cool Ruby on Rails project called RealTime on Rails. I’ll post more on this project at a later date, but the general objective is [...]

If you do any sort of web development using Flash or AJAX then you’ve probably dealt with making asynchronous web requests….ones that run behind the scenes. In these type of applications you’ve probably needed to analyze a Web Service request at some point in time. In most situations this is very difficult to do from [...]

I received a few emails today saying that my GolfTips widget was broken. It turns out I was having a server issue that I didn’t even know about (until I received the emails). Everything should be back up and running again. Please let me know if this isn’t the case and I’ll [...]

After only a few short days with my Cingular 8125 I continue to be fascinated with Windows Mobile 2005.  I recently stumbled across Pocket Putty and was immediately hooked.  While the application is fairly simple (not to belittle the developer at all), it’s extremely powerful.  It basically lets me open an SSH session with my [...]

While working through an application that allows users to upload videos to the web I ran into a few problems. For starters, there’s no guarantee that obscene videos won’t be uploaded into the application. The integrity of the application will be dependent on members of the community. Or an editorial process could be implemented where [...]

I stumbled across Mini Mozilla this evening and wanted to share it here:

It’s crazy to see desktop applications get ported to a lightweight platform.  I haven’t installed it yet since I’m having problems installing the CAB file directly.  If tabbed browsing is supported then I’ll consider ditching Pocket IE.
