Espresso

Espresso. Time for something new in web development.

I got an email from Jan at MacRabbit today and I’m stoked to announce that I’ve been accepted into the Espresso testing group! MacRabbit makes the best CSS editor ever, CSSEdit, so I can only imagine how great Espresso is going to be. Espresso isn’t going to be a full blown and bloated solution to development, rather it will focus on allowing the community to develop Sugar with it’s SugarDevelopmentKit. Freedom to extend is always good.

I’m a cyclist and seriously offended at the current state of gasoline prices so I thought I should mention Zeropergallon today. Get out your bike and ride it!
