I am now working on some CSS styling and trying to slip in the the Google Maps feature before releasing a beta.

 

gotocodecamp.com

I am trying to keep the features to a minimum at the moment (37 Signals like) as I don’t want to bloat the app. Here’s to a few more candle burning nights….

Don’t forget if you have created a Hobo app then post it on the forum. I’m going to do that once the first release is out.

Happy Hoboing everyone….

With this in mind I have registered at MyOpenID and wanted to learn about integrating this technology into my forthcoming GotoCodeCamp web app.

I found a ton of information at

http://leancode.com/openid-for-rails/

which I would highly recommend.

The one that has caught my eye today is Slingshot by Joyent. As a Ruby on Rails developer this realy has fired my creative mind. From what i have read on the Joyent blog, Slingshot will allow you to build Rails applications for the desktop and run the offline.

More information:

Technical overview
Screencast

I will publish more information about this new technology when I have been able to create a test application.
