I do trust all of the ideas you’ve presented in your post. They are really convincing and will certainly work. Still, the posts are very quick for beginners. May you please lengthen them a little from next time? Thank you for the post.

Cool, book marked sit down and can share with my own freinds who also have a tabata mp3 that they use.

This makes me very jealous… I wish there were a similar plugin for grails (my chosen web framework)! Have you written a super-high-level overview of how the plugin works that might help someone to “port” it? I’m not sure how tricky this would be in practice – depends on how similar grails/rails are under the hood. Guess I should probably just read the code….

I had thought of pushing to GitHub as making your code and you easier to find and as adding to the number of links to you, but I understand your perspective.

Thanks for sharing the code.

Patrick,

Thanks for this great contribution. I plan on trying it out. This is a bit off topic, but I’m curious: what is your Rails dev environment setup like (OS, editor, tools, etc). I’d really enjoy a post on the topic. I’m actually a desktop mISV/developer that’s been learning Rails.

Thanks again.

Thanks for your contributions to OSS! I use A/Bingo on http://ridewithgps.com with decent success. So far it’s been little tests showing good results, but I am excited to take it further.

I hadn’t thought too much on posting OSS tools I create on github, figuring it was just a good default place to post them. However, I see the benefits of bringing eyes to your site in order to use your software. If you are not charging for use of the software, it’s a decent way to at least get exposure and climb in pagerank in lieu of payment!

Anyway, thanks for making this handy tool available.

The fact that you’d look for my code on Github in preference to my own site is exactly why I will not ever release A/Bingo on Github.

We’re all businessmen here, right? In addition to an abiding desire to spread the light of A/B testing throughout the world, I kind of like getting the links, attention, and job offers associated with publishing a piece of OSS in an underserved niche which has high commercial value. Putting my software on Github does not help me get links, attention, and job offers.

If you would like to see it on Github, you’re welcome to fork it and put it in your account.

Would you consider creating or blessing an official repo on GitHub? It’s the go-to spot for Rails coders and I didn’t think twice before I looked there first for a copy of the code to start testing. There are four copies of A/Bingo there for taking, none up-to-date and most with changes.

The git-multipush script ( http://code.google.com/p/git-multipush/ ) makes it convenient to push to both your existing repository and a new one.

Probably! However, the intended audience here is mostly folks who are already on A/Bingo, and wondering “What does this new release mean for me?” Answer: it breaks things now (potentially — most users won’t see breakage) so I don’t have to break things later.

The A/Bingo site itself is focused on the needs of a person new to A/B testing or evaluating whether to use A/Bingo or not for their Rails testing needs. You’ll note I hit the benefits early and often there.
