  • Rubyology 96: Brian Hogan (Madison Ruby Conf)

    10/08/2011

    Chris Matthieu sat down with Brian P. Hogan to chat about his upcoming talk at the Madison Ruby Conference, 8/18/2011 - 8/20/2011. Brian's talk is entitled, "Creating RubyGems from Scratch". If you've ever looked into how to create Gems, you've probably seen a bunch of ways to do that. Project generators like Hoe, Jeweler, and the like offer some nice ways to get started, but they may often be overkill for many projects. If you're just starting out, why not learn to do it from scratch? In this talk, we'll create our own gem from scratch, using only things that are provided by Ruby, its standard library, and RubyGems to craft a simple gem. You'll learn how to set up a project, how to write and run tests, how to use Rake to quickly build the gem, and even how to create a gem that installs an executable command-line program.

  • Rubyology 85: Teleku, cloud telecom

    03/03/2010

    Chris Matthieu introduces his new cloud-based telecom start-up written in Ruby on Rails called Teleku.com! Teleku is a new cloud-based telecom service that allows Web developers to build and host phone applications that answer inbound calls and initiate outbound calls, interact with Web applications, and send/receive SMS text messages! Using simple XML and JSON responses in your HTTP Web pages, you can deliver sophisticated interactive voice response (IVR) telephony applications in as little as 5 minutes! The Teleku platform runs phone applications written in PhoneML®, Twilio’s® TwiML®, and traditional VoiceXML. You can even mix XML libraries on a Web service call-by-call basis and chain voice applets together using one or all of the three libraries. Teleku natively uses Phone Markup Language (PhoneML) to build powerful phone applications quickly and easily. PhoneML can be viewed as a modern and more simple approach to building XML/JSON-based telephony applications. PhoneML is a set of RESTful XML/JSO

  • Rubyology 84: Heroku Addons with Oren Teich

    31/10/2009

    Above is a link to our latest podcast, led by the one-and-only Chris Matthieu. You can grab this one as a direct download, though bear in mind streaming a raw mp3 without a decent broadband connection may take some time, so always give it time to buffer, as it's a shame to have it stop and start throughout playback. That being said, we think it's great to be able to offer visitors our audio ramblings on the site directly - sometimes, downloading a large mp3 isn't what you'd like on a Friday night after work is done for the week. So kick back, relax, hit stream, and enjoy. More details on the podcast are below! @ChrisMatthieu interviews Oren @Teich of Heroku about their new add-on services that just launched on October 29th. These services are like an appstore for deployment options. Check out this fun interview to learn more about super simple cloud deployments!
