This might come as a surprise, but IsACatch has been over a year in the making! You didn’t really think that we pulled it out of magic hat now did you? Here’s a little food for thought for all of you fellow web developers out there who are curious about some of the technology behind IsACatch.

IsACatch was built in its entirety with Ruby on Rails. For those of you who are not familiar with RoR, it’s an up and coming web technology that makes web 2.0 development dirt simple and ridiculously fast. This is the third site that I’ve helped build with RoR, and I must say it’s really lived up to its reputation as a quick and comprehensive technology. Some other poplar sites that are build on Rails include Basecamp, Twitter, and 43things. If you’re a web developer who’s still using php or perl for whatever reason, you definitely owe it to yourself to check out RoR. Read more here.
