If you’ve been looking for an opportunity to learn Ruby on Rails, this may be it. Our team has recently opened sign-ups for our first public Rails training session, taking place later on the 19th, 20 and 21st of May in Coimbra, Portugal. We’ll be going from basics down to a few pretty advanced topics, so this should make you happy wether you’re a beginner or already know a little bit of rails.
For more information about the 3 days of training, check out our training site or get in touch with us at training@webreakstuff.com. We hope to see you there. There are discounts for students and for those people only attending specific days, so feel free to ask.

I’ve been (and so has the rest of the team here) pretty quiet during the last few months. Mostly because we were pretty busy working on Totspot (blog), which we launched with a group of really smart people. Totspot is a social publishing platform for parents and their kids. It’s a pretty niche market, but an exciting one too.
Totspot started out as client work and it became our single focus for months - definitely worth it, for several reasons. One: it’s pretty...

Two years ago, Robert Scoble and Shel Israel documented in “Naked conversations” how blogs where changing businesses and their engagement with consumers. 2006 was in fact what you might call the year of the company blog. Companies left and right, big and small, opened blogs to engage in conversations with their costumers and fans. This brough the barrier of communication - previously assumed huge and unbreakable - down to waist height. Anyone with a little interest could get in touch...
