When I previously announced my last project, some people asked that I open Donebox code.
svn co http://code.macournoyer.com/svn/donebox/trunk donebox

Patches are welcome and might be deployed to the live site.
What do you do when it rains on the weekend ? Remove some sleep and my girlfriend gone on a trip and you’re pretty sure I’m hacking some code.
But before the unveiling, here goes a song by Jimi Hendrix
There must be some kind of way out of here

There’s too much [...]
Yesterday I went to MontrealDemoCamp3 with Daniel and Gary. As usual the room was full and the demos were amazing!

Getting in the zone allows you to be in a state where you’re completely separated from the outside world. It’s just you and the computer. Your fingers against a horde of bits. You [...]

Honoured because this is big news for the Rails community in Montreal. We had some mailing list and user group [...]

Yesterday was the 6th Montreal Entrepreneur Breakfast (second for me). I had a great time!
