i've tried heroku a few times, always found it kinda painful to learn and felt helpless when things go wrong..

not sure if its because i'm used to building own servers (which might be inefficient)

maybe heroku is better for people with less sys admin skills? or it might just be way better now (i haven't tried in over a year).

now i use rackspace/ec2/linode for rails.

it is all fashion, things come into fashion then they go out.

then they come back in.

there was an old Mad magazine that had this with cars:

  1. first the cars were all chrome with a little bit of glass

  2. then the glass got bigger and bigger

  3. eventually the cars were all glass with a little bit of chrome

  4. then a 'futuristic' car came along that was all chrome with only a little bit of glass
