XML and podcasts

Been doing alot of reading on xml lately. Built my first podcast today at http://media.3clicks.org/
Also I did some research on the xmpp protocol and google XEP (XMPP extension) jingle which allows for voice messaging using the XMPP protocol.

Currently listening to a podcast for learning spanish called coffee break spanish.

Django, Ruby on Rails, python, ruby

There has been alot of buzz about python and ruby. Especially ruby which seems to have jumped up out of nowhere over night! Jumping into the top 10 most popular languages on the Tiobe Index as of this writing. I've been quite curious and set out to learn more about these languages by learning about two of the more popular frameworks built on them 'Django' (python) and 'Ruby on Rails' (ruby). Quite interesting I will keep watching these languages and frameworks as they grow. 'Snakes vs Rubies' is a nice presentation of both frameworks by their creators
