ThoroughlyR

I'm actually in the process of learning Ruby right now. I'm curious though. From the perspective of someone who has hasn't been programming for a long time, would you consider it a good idea to learn Ruby before learning Rails? I'm waiting on my copy of The Well-Grounded Rubyist to arrive so I can get started.

I'd really like to visit a start-up and see what it's really like. I've never had a development job before.

I guess I could use a good leg stretch between flights. :P

I've just bought a pair of Klipsch earbuds that have worked pretty well so far.

Congratulations on getting your MVP out! I never tried Think Python, but I did learn a lot from Learn Python the Hard Way -- it's a pretty good book.

Where did you get the background picture?

The FCC keeps information on radio stations, but it doesn't include anything on the station's genre. This could probably be fixed with a classifier that learns based on the station's website.

I've never heard of Shoutcast, I'll have to check it out.

EDIT: SHOUTcast's API doesn't seem to support anything that would allow a show host to gather info on users. That's probably for the best though ..

Something like Eventful, but solely for music?

I'm from Jacksonville, FL. Unfortunately, there isn't a huge software community here -- at least not that I can find.

I tried to have a look at your API, but it won't load. :) Just sayin.

EDIT: Nevermind, it loaded.

I immediately stopped reading at "their're".
