As I’ve mentioned before a few of us from DigiMedia have started up the North Texas Ruby Users Group (ntrb) and plan to have meetings on the first Thursday of each month. Well this Thursday marks our first meeting. Nothing major is planned and no talk is really set as this is the first and we are gauging the turn out. We will be meeting December 4th from 6:30pm to 8pm at the Wichita Falls Public Library in the Library Conference Room. You can find more info on the official site ntrb.org (with a full site coming very soon). So, if your a Ruby or Rails developer or are thinking about jumping into Ruby then you should check out the meeting.

I have been ignoring this blog for many reasons but mostly due to work and life. I have now been at DigiMedia for almost 4 months and it has been great. We are currently working on a large project in Ruby on Rails and I’m learning loads in it. I am honestly enjoying developing with Ruby and Rails. I am still doing plenty of freelance web design with both some old clients and new ones. Just finished up 3 client projects this past month and plan to take a little break until some large ones come in early next year. So, between working during the day and freelance in the evenings/weekends, I have very little time. Of course the plus side is that I’m purchasing a new Macbook Pro with this extra freelance money (when the clients actually pay).
Life has been real busy and will only get worse as the holidays get closer. We will be traveling to Kansas for 5 or 6 days next week to spend Thanksgiving with some of Melissa’s family. We haven’t been up there in awhile so figured this was the perfect chance.
As the title suggests, I plan to move this blog to a new domain within the next week or so. Mostly will depend on getting a redesign finished. I will be keeping this domain but it will be a ‘playground’ or portfolio of my work and apps. The new domain will be for blogging, of which I hope to do more of. I am going to try to focus more on development/design related blog posts. I have lots of things coming up so it should be easy. A few of us from DigiMedia have started a North Texas Ruby Users Group and plan to meet the first Thursday of each month with our first meeting next month. I plan to attend more of the Dallas and Oklahoma City Ruby meetings as well. I just figured it was time for a change and a new domain will help (I hope).
