You no doubt would have heard about Rails or RoR or Ruby On Rails. They all refer to the same thing.If you’re wondering what that is or if it is for you , you’ve come to the right place. Ruby on Rails is huge these days . Read on to know what its about.

Ruby on Rails, often shortened to Rails or RoR, is an open source web application framework for the Ruby programming language. It is intended to be used with an Agile development methodology that is used by web developers for rapid development.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruby_on_Rails

What that means is that Ruby On Rails helps you write Web apps Fast.  These days interactive websites are also referred to as web apps. Web developers would have had to code the whole app by hand. A lot of it would be commonly used functions. Needless to say this used to take time , energy and brain power. Brain power , energy and time better spent elsewhere like testing and thinking out the important sensitive functions of the site. Frameworks like Ruby On Rails reduce the time and complexity of writing up something like a Web App.

This is a list post. Instead of trying to fit everything about RoR in one post, I thought I’d share links to some seriously great resources on RoR.

Sites running on Ruby on Rails :

Shopify: E-commerce made	Penny Arcade: Comic	Sortfolio
http://twitter.com/	43things	Geni
Scribd	Inkling Markets	A List Apart

lynda.com could possibly be the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Rarely does anything get me this excited. No hype people.

For one there are courses similar to the ones on this site I’ve bought for $197 . The $197 courses were rubbish compared to this. This site is a treasure chest of information. In fact its so good you’d probably increase your income by thousands should you apply it. Make no mistake . This is not a sales pitch.

Before you start thinking this as one of those sleazy internet marketing websites (okay okay sheesh lol ) , I would like to assure you it isn’t. The best part is that you could gain access to this treasure chest for $25.

A few of the Courses that you will be getting –

Twitter is becoming popular amongst marketers. The important thing is that it works. You are in all honesty better off not ignoring it. Today’s short Blog post is about adding a “tweet this” link to your Website or Blog.

You can achieve this by copy pasting the code below and of course changing the web address and message to suit your needs.

<a href= ”http://twitter.com/home?status=Serving Niches (http://servingniches.com/testblog)”>

Tweet about Serving Niches

</a>

The end result of this above code will look like the Link below.

Tweet about Serving Niches

<a href= ”http://twitter.com/home?status=Google (http://google.com)”>

In this part you should replace the (http://google.com) with your site address or whatever you want it pointed to .

“status=Google ” Here “Google” should be replaced with the message you want displayed.

Tweet about Google

</a>

and you would want to replace “Tweet about Google” to what you want displayed there.

When a visitor clicks that code , they will taken directly to twitter.They will have your tweet and your site address in their update box. All they have to do is press the update button. You can click on it yourself and test it.
