Another New Feature!
October 10, 2005

Ruby On Rails makes things a lot easier for content management than PHP. I'm up in the air as to if it would still be speedy for a web application (like the one I'm working on for my work, and that we're in the beta phase for) - but for content management it kicks ass.

The comments system now includes a URI field, so that you guys can post your web site URIs - if you choose. It's ... optional! Anyway, I need to add people to my "People I Like" section, but I always forget to until after I've lost the URI.

Oh, and PostgreSQL made this switch a lot easier. I'm not certain if mySql contains an "ALTER TABLE table ADD COLUMN" function, but PostgreSQL's documentation showed it right in front of me. I was always just dumping my mySql tables, and then importing them back into a brand new table.
