Congratulations; it looks great! I am trying to develop some technical skills as well. How long did it take you to learn enough to build Favsi? What were the resources you used? Would appreciate your help with this as I'm really bogged down between choosing the right websites/books and the right language, etc.

Thanks man!

The latest go-round of learning rails started in mid-February. After working through building a basic blog in the 'Beginning Rails 3' book, I started working on Favsi. I had the majority of Favsi done in a couple of months but a few small details ended up taking quite a bit of time to figure out.

I highly recommend Rails and the "Beginning Rails 3" book. I listed out a bunch of other resources I used in this list: http://favsi.com/justinthiele/thank-you-seriously
