And back to MindFood, my own small reference webapp (a small and naive multi-user notebook for notes about movies). Written in PHP to learn PHP, and it was -not- love at first sight. So from time to time, I play with a web framework, reimplemeting bits and pieces to get a grasp on a new toy. And a few months ago, I played with Rails, found it quite nice, till I discovered that the abstraction was somewhat blocking, forcing me to write raw SQL requests again. Nice, but premature. I came back to Rails recently, and was really happy to see the evolution of ActiveRecord and the improved find API. So I'm playing with Rails again. Hey, maybe I'll be able to include some Ajax effect.
