<p>The existence of <a href="http://www.recovery.gov">Recovery.gov</a> impresses me.  I mean, that was quick.  And it runs on <em>Drupal</em>.</p>

<p>Another great site focusing on the recovery effort is <a href="http://www.stimuluswatch.org/">Stimulus Watch</a>, and in the same fashion, the <a href="http://radar.oreilly.com/2009/02/stimuluswatchorg-the-falling-cost-speed-of-group-action.html">story of its timely rise</a> is inspiring.  <em>CodeIgniter</em>, wow.</p>

<p><em>So where&#8217;s the Ruby love?</em></p>    </content>

<p>I dare say, life&#8217;s moved pretty quickly, both professionally and personally.  A quick rundown is in order.</p>

<p>First and foremost, our second child is on the way.  Unexpected, surely, but we&#8217;re looking forward to a new arrival this summer.  I plan to have a whole army by the time that I&#8217;m through.</p>

<p>On the working front, I spent some time at the end of last year chasing freelance, but after a pleasant courtship, I&#8217;ve landed at <a href="www.pivotallabs.com">Pivotal Labs</a>.  It&#8217;s a great company and I feel fortunate to work with such a talented crew.  These days, I have a renewed sense of excitement and fun going into the office and that&#8217;s never a thing to take for granted.</p>

<p>I guess that&#8217;s it for now.</p>    </content>
