Apologies if this is out of place. I just wanted to mention to the  
list that I’ve completed my first Rails app and wanted to show it to  
you guys. The site is The Best Stuff in the World! which you can  
reach here: [http://www.thebeststuffintheworld.com/](http://www.thebeststuffintheworld.com/)

Any thoughts would be great, I can be reached at removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid.

I’ve been lurking here for a little while, and well, it has been a  
great resource and help for me. I just wanted to say thanks to you  
guys. Rails has been fun to program in, coming from a WebObjects/Java/  
PHP5 Refugee.

All the best.

Are you a hired developer for the site, or is the site and concept  
yours?

Hi Bill.

The design/css was done by a Luke Wong (my biz partner), and the concept  
was both Luke’s and myself. The coding was done by me. I really  
appreciate the support by you guys, its been overwhelming.

Thanks so much.

Adrian

Very nice site! One minor typo: When you write “One person think’s that  
24 is better” it should be “thinks”.

Great site, congratulations!
