I am going to make a portfolio website for my sister as she is currently studying Make Up and Special FX at Uni. She wants the site to include a blog so I searched around for a mountable blog engine to plug into a Rails app. The best one I found by far was Blogo (https://github.com/greyblake/blogo) . To test it out I used it to generate a blog and was impressed by how easy it was to use (both to plug into the app and for the user to create blogs). I want to keep a consistent 'look' to the final site so in this experiment I also figured out how to over-ride the default layout and styling of the '/blog' page. This can be changed from app/assets/stylesheets/styles.sass and app/views/layouts/blogo/blog.html.erb.

This is a small Sinatra app used to scrape Pinterest with Nokogiri to display images of hair styles, kittens and eye make up. These are things I view often but you can change @url variables to scrape Pinterest pages for other things.

Ran through the Ruby Basics Codebar tutorial (http://tutorials.codebar.io/ruby/lesson2/tutorial.html) as a refresher before helping a student through the tutorial at a Codebar workshop. Teaching the tutorial to the student went well and I was glad I had run through it beforehand. I think the most difficult part is ensuring variables are not out of score and helping someone understand where to physically write the different parts of the program in order to learn the rules of how everything works together. Even for a small program like this there is still a lot for someone to take in but she did really well. Definitely enjoying and learning loads from teaching Ruby to someone and I feel like it is all cementing into my mind that bit more.

I am planning to build a guitar practice website. Part of this will involve displaying Youtube videos thus working with the Youtube API. I worked through this tutorial: http://www.sitepoint.com/youtube-rails/ which uses the youtube_it Ruby gem (https://github.com/kylejginavan/youtube_it). I had to make a few changes as I was using Rails 4.2.0 and the tutorial uses Rails 3.2.21 but overall it worked well. Looking forward to playing some more with the Youtube API.
