Reflections On Middleman Tech

Ok first things first. In open source, give credit where credit is due. Well dbtlr.com, I give you credit. The source code for your page helped me get a jump start on middleman. The middleman gem/template/compass all that regular stuff initializer…I really needed helped on seeing the subdirectory of the blog code and also having a front page. Dbtlr.com you helped me with that.

That being said, the code for blog.articles[0...10].each do I wonder what’ll happen once I hit that threshold of more than 10 posts. We shall see. I’ll probably need to put in code for a “next” button/hyperlink.

Also other things to discover in the great middleman ruby static blogging beyond: disqus integration, and importing from those other language (php wordpress, tumblr I don’t know what you are) database based systems.

Anyhow, simple thoughts for a simple day.
