Rails – Social Networking – History Connects Everything – And Other Things I have Been Working on Lately
by casey on Dec.05, 2006, under Drunken Rambling
Well, I have been a bit remiss in keeping everyone updated on what I have been up to lately.
Earlier this year I started a fairly large Rails project, Yfly.com, a social networking site for teens and celebrities. We did an initial deploy on August 15th and weekly/biweekly updates thereafter. At the end of October I left Space 150 and the Yfly contract to work for Dean Heckler, (inventor, designer and technologist) to start building Nearbie.com. Nearbie is a fun (and practical) tool to enable the exploration of history connections between people, places and events. It lets everyone capture history and see how that history is related to other nearby people, places and events. Nearbie is in active development right now and will be going live later this month.
