CouchDB..... Relax....

I just signed up for a free account at cloudant.com to play with couchdb.

I started using couchapp to manage my project.

In less than 50 lines of javascript ( with lots of whitespace) I built a simple, yet functional chatroom.

I didn't bother to adjust the default couchapp template.

Check it out.

New Blog

So I am starting a blog. It's not a place for social commentary. It's not a place for family photos. I'll let my wife handle that. This blog exists as a place to dump ideas. To post about projects. To discuss new "toys" in both the software and hardware worlds. Feel free to tell me my idea is terrible (please include some details) or tell me what you like about it. Please make suggestions for improvements. Thanks!
