  Watching the evolution of trackclass was interesting because it seemed to mirror Soshiku very closely. http://www.soshiku.com/tour http://www.soshiku.com/tour http://trackclass.com/tour http://trackclass.com/tour

  TastyPlanner, the winner of RailsRumble '07, was built by a 4-man team. According to them, it has been improved ever since but the core of it is what existed at the RailsRumble '07 deadline. http://www.tastyplanner.com http://www.tastyplanner.com 10,000 real monthly users

I was on the team that built http://bootleggers.r08.railsrumble.com http://bootleggers.r08.railsrumble.com Think of it as election.twitter.com... except you make your own channels. And you can follow or fork other people's channels, and blah blah. Oh and it's not just Twitter. :)

  Mark, what are you talking about? It's an good app, especially for 48 hrs. Don't sell yourself short.

    I'm talking comparatively. Thanks for the kind words, though.

Just an FYI... The official list will be online at the Rails Rumble 2008 site shortly, once voting opens. Teams have an additional 24 hours to update their profiles (make screencasts, etc) and then we need to review and weed out any entries that were disqualified. Therefore, I would expect voting to open sometime Tuesday. In the meantime, please register as a judge to vote! http://railsrumble.com http://railsrumble.com (anyone can judge!) The entries this year were absolutely unbelievable. Thanks to everyone who got involved.
