My web 2.0 application progress report

Just wanted to say that even though I do not have a lot of time to spend working on my little web 2.0 Grails based site, I've made quite a good progress with it. I must say that even though I have tons of ideas for new features as I go along with it, I need to draw a line and scope out the feature set for the initial release. Also I'm building it on the development SVN snapshots versions of Grails, so in this respect the ride is a little rougher, but I personally like to "live on the edge" :-)

I'm almost at the point where I need to turn it over to a web designer for the best layout/UI possible (I just want it to look beautiful, as the site itself might not serve a great purpose other than be a nice looking "social time waster") I will speak to our Web designer guru at work to see if he could help me out, but if that doesn't happen, I'd be willing to seek help from "outside".

I have some other plans e.g. build some cool web apps with Grails i.e. work on Grails Camelot , build a social web app for the Grails development community (grailscrowd.com) similar to the one for the Rails community, etc.

If anyone else is interested in building something cool with Grails, just let me know :-)

Later...
