It's safe to say that I'm a Twitter addict. I've been around the Twittersphere for a little over a year now.

Throughout that time, I've been almost exclusively a Twitterrific user (or Tweetie on the iPhone). The interface is a superb minimalistic design. It's straightforward, out-of-the-way, and works flawlessly.

1. Watch this video
2. Get a Twitter account
3. Start following people you think may be interested in your product or service by:

The hundreds of programming languages out there leave little wonder as to why this is.

Now, there's a compelling way to keep those bygone commands close at hand.

I've done a couple of Django apps so far, and one thing that always annoys me is having to manually set DEBUG in my settings.py when moving from development to production, or vice versa.

Since I'm always developing on my localhost, I know that I always want DEBUG to be True when running on localhost. I also know that DEBUG should always be False when running on my production server. Fortunately, Python makes quick work of this. In your settings.py file:

Lion Burger is a business venture into web application development run by a two-man team in Rochester, NY. Our team consists of developers Pete Karl, and Nick Sergeant.

Twenty-four hours ago, I was deploying applications from development to production environments in about 5-6 steps. Today, tomorrow and every day in the future, I'm doing it in 1 step, with Fabric.

I don't normally write about personal things on this blog, but I wanted to explore this idea I've had floating around for a while. The bottom line: there is just no all-encompassing title for the do-it-all web professional.
