I would hope the word "SharePoint" makes you all cringe in this email, but I wanted to forward it on in case you guys need some extra cash, were maybe ...
All, Given the business of the season and last year's December low meeting turnout, let's have a libation or two instead of doing our usual meeting. Laptops...
Same here! Why not have another pub night to bring in the New Year? ... From: Todd Burch <toddburch@...> Subject: Re: [Houston-RoR] Houston.rb pub...
Obviously the big one is engine yard, but you need to have some pretty deep pockets for them. I've been using Slicehost and their I haven't had to use their...
I like slicehost. Even dreamhost is not so bad now that they support passenger Michael Hagedorn Silverchair Solutions - Agile Web Develoment Houston, Tx...
I second the recommendation for slicehost. I have been using them for a about 9 months and have been very pleased. The upside is that you get a virtual machine...
AWS/EC2 is rocking these days. I just moved someone from EngineYard ~$2600/month to EC2 for less than $1000/month with much more computing power... I will open...
We've been using AWS/EC2 for over a year now for several sites and have been very pleased. If you do consider EC2, also take a look at RightScale. We use them...

... It's like what Warren Buffet says about diversification -- it's only for the uninformed. The informed know the true stack - everyone else is doomed to...
I am one of the minority I guess that doesnt dig it when the rails gods remove stuff from release to release. It seems that Merb shares this philosopy, so I...
... Merb 2 (and the future Rails 3) will ship with a default stack. But you can change that. I expect to see different meta gems that install your stack of...
