Rails comes with bundled rich internet application features like ajax and javascript libraries like Prototype and Script.aculo.us for sleek user interface. It has built in support for REST Api, webservices among others which means one can easily build advanced web 2.0 applications.

The other day I was trying to install ferret gem for one of my projects on my Ubuntu system. For those who haven't heard of ferret, “Ferret is a high-performance, full-featured text search engine library written for Ruby.” It can be said to be the Ruby counterpart of zend search lucene library.
The documents said simply running a sudo apt-get install ferret should suffice. But to my frustration it was not so easy and being new to ruby, I had a tough time figuring out waht was going wrong. However thanks to Google and many helpfull developers, I finally managed to install ferret on my system. So I thought, it might be useull for someone else who gets struck with ferret.

First of all you will need to install ruby-dev package (in case you havn't done so already)

sudo apt-get install ruby1.8-dev

Thereafter you also need to install the libc6-dev package (offcourse in case you havn't done so already)

sudo apt-get install libc6-dev

Both done, now you should be able to install ferret without any issues

sudo apt-get install ferret

 Hope this saves someone's time out there :)

In this time of global economic recession where thousands of people are getting laid off every day and IT & Financial giants getting bankrupt every now and then, is it a wise decision to foray into the challenging startup environment. Any intelligent guy would strongly advise against it. But I say why not and am going to give a few reasons why I feel it is so. It’s purely my own opinion and I may be completely wrong.
