Nice to see this here today. A number of hosts the article mentions are on the startpage of lookit, a finger client I've been building: happynetbox, plan.cat, thebackupbox's finger webring, etc.
The start page exists because finger has no discovery layer. finger @host lists users. lookit makes that list selectable, so you can wander a server instead of querying one address at a time.
I just released a v0.2 beta, feedback welcome: https://github.com/jonathandeamer/lookit/releases/tag/v0.2.0...

This looks like a good online Rails course with the option of mentorship http://learn.thoughtbot.com I keep seeing promoted tweets advertising it.

Assuming your designs are printable, why not test out some of your designs on a community like Threadless? Allows you to "launch early and iterate" and get early "user" feedback with minimal financial risk. It'll allow you to gauge the popularity of different designs without having to actually have the clothes made.
As there's already an established community around Threadless, it might also be a good way to build an initial following for your brand/style.
Was definitely an inspiration for lookit. And yes, a search engine would be cool!
