Plays Well With Others - European RailsConf

I’ll be speaking at the European RailsConf. Given the strange name for the talk, I should probably release a little more information.

Building green-field applications with rails is a well understood process. You generate a few models, embrace the conventions for the schema, and ship your application. Unfortunately a completely blank slate is a rare occurrence, there’s almost always some other application out there you have to read from, write to or both. What’s the best approach for tying together applications? What technologies should you use? What ‘silver-bullets’ should you avoid? How can you structure your application to avoid common pitfalls.

Hopefully I can pass on some of the lessons I’ve learned so you can avoid making the same mistakes I have.

Finally, I’m really looking forward to hearing the other talks. If I can fly all the way from the other side of the world the rest of you can come along too.

I can’t find your contact address, so I’m addressing to you this way. I’m from Serbia and sorry for my English. This is my problem: I have put together a little web service, called “moji naslovi”, which means My Titles. It should be web rss reader. Take a look at this address naslovi.indigo-studio.com, and you’ll get a picture. Here we go: I have tested firefox2 and saw thing about rss feeds. My question is: How hard is to write a little extension, which will add my web rss reader to the list, beside bloglines and google reader(or something). I modify about:conf in firefox and that worked out. I have no experience in writing extensions. So if you can help me i would be grateful. I would like add download of that extension to my page. Thanks in advance. Best regards.
