I need to be pampered

So, I’ve sort of fallen off the blog wagon, an event that I think was noticed by exactly one person -- me. But I have legitimate excuses. In the past month, I’ve had a daughter and launched a brain child -- Cry From The Cubicles.

I’ll keep the proud parent gushing confined to Facebook and limit my talk here to the Cry From The Cubicles. The site has a tag line of ‘Workplace Insanity Shared’, and I believe that is as succinct a description as possible. We all see things every day at the job that are funny, or aggravating, or don’t make sense. I have a whole network of friends that IM me every day with the latest office occurrence that has made them take pause. The site is basically a shared version of this.

The prime technology leveraged is Grails, which I have come to fall in love with. No, its not the right tool for every job, but there is probably no better tool in the Java world for RAD & agility. I will post more about my experiences with it soon.

In the meantime, I will be changing diapers, earning a living and getting new features implemented in cry from the cubicles. Wish me luck! I need it!
