The peanut-butter is a little something called Ajax, and it's cropping up in your browser just about daily--often without your even taking notice of it (aside, perhaps, from a delighted "Hmm!" every so often). It's the desktop application-like quality of the Gmail interface, the surprisingly slick interactivity of Google Maps that made you stop wondering why anyone bothered writing yet another online maps site, the subtle auto-fill of your city and state names as you typed your ZIP code into a web form.

The web development world is about to enjoy one of those chocolate-and-peanut-butter moments, the convergence of two individually flavorful technologies to form a scrumptious new taste sensation.
The chocolate in this equation is Ruby on Rails: a framework for building database-driven web applications. But far from being yet another web development framework, Rails is known for its small footprint, low barrier to entry, flexible-yet-powerful, "more joy and less code" approach to application building. Rails is primarily the work of David Heinemeier Hansson, the backbone of 37signals' fabulous Basecamp project management tool (more on this incredible pairing in a forthcoming post). -
