My first blog entry

08/01/08

Ok, so this is my first blog post on my site iybox.com. If your wondering what iybox.com means I really dont have any answer for you. The domain was available and it wasn't to long of a name so I took it. The main reason why I created this blog was really to dive into Ruby on Rails. This is my first rails app and I must say compared to other languages/frameworks this one is pretty cool. I have been hearing a lot of hype about it and decided to give it a shot. Over all I am pretty happy with it and I decided I am going to make it my primary language of choice and do all future projects in it. Unless of course all the rumors of it not being able to scale are true. Then Ill probably go back to php.
