Thanks to talents of the one and only Andrew Hyde, devver.net now looks awesome. The text I supplied is far from perfect and we still need to integrate the blog, but it’s a huge improvement. Thanks Andrew - you rule.
Last Thursday, we had the opportunity to hear a talk from Jason Fried, CEO of 37signals. I had already read some of the 37signals philosophy in Getting Real (although it’s about time for a re-read), but the talk was still totally fascinating.
