So I finally got brockbouchard.net up and running in what I consider a mostly finished state! I think of it as a personal-site/online-portfolio for sharing my software projects with the world. Arguably the most useful thing is an Environment Variable Editor that I wrote to get around having to use the horrid series of fixed-size dialogs built into Windows.
The site was built using Rails, and I took the opportunity to over-engineer a few features to learn some new tricks. I also host the site on VPS plan where I had to deploy and configure everything myself. This was a highly painful, but more importantly highly informative, experience. I plan on blogging about what I learned building the site over my next several posts.
