Jaikoo - Ruby, Merb, Datamapper & Web Applications

Merb, Datamapper AND merbful_authenticaion my lovelies!

I promised a few folks a screencast of Merb and Datamapper a long time ago. I mean it’s all very nice reading about it all on my shiny blog but what about video? Nothing better than being able to watch some geek p0rn while drinking a glass of wine. Heck why not be like me and do that on the London Underground. Glass of wine in one hand Ipod Touch in the other and trying to fend off the heathen hordes with my foot. On it’s a jolly old place that Victoria line.

But I digress. I could of just given you a Merb and Datamapper tutorial, but that wouldn’t have been fun would it? I mean even the Queen’s auntie has written one of those, so no I had to go one further! I give you the Merb, Datamaper and merbful_authentication screencast!! Let it not be said that I’m not a generous and pleasing chap (most pleasing indeed or so in my naughty little dream last night).

Well you can tell that this isn’t rehearsed as I left in all the bloopers including me frantically wishing I’d used in-memory sessions rather than cookies for this demo.
