Spent some time hacking away on project MSM. Was trying to get it pushed out to heroku today but I’m losing that fight. Has something to do with compass, sass and sass-on-heroku. I’ve moved compass out of the gem manifest, put it in environments/development.rb, wrapped the initializer with a check for Rails.env == “development”. I’m storing the generated css in git to push it across. I’ll play with it tomorrow I guess. Might be related to where compass likes to store sass and output the generated css.

Interesting tidbits from around the web

Still not sure whether to watch github repos, follow the authors, or bookmark them in delicious.
