    great.... these screencasts have been a really painless introduction to the syntax and the process of developing with erlang... I actually really like it when you make mistakes since it makes me happy when you later pick them up - proving that I have correctly understood.

    I was not a fan of the code magically appearing. I understand _why_ you did this, but it forced me to do a mental diff to catch up with the changes.... I think even just saying "I'm just going to paste some methods here, here and here" and copy/pasting from offscreen would have made that faster to process mentally. I found that I had to keep looking at the module declaration since I no longer recognized the source as you do when you have watched it grow.

    look forward to the next installment
  • I thought about adding JSON but the running time was getting a bit long. I'll poke around the JSON stuff in Mochiweb and see if I can't write something up.
  • Excellent... Mochiweb is really simple and cool..
    What I really missed though was having everything in JSON format instead of plaintext.

    I have looked around but I don't find any JSON module with any sorts of documentation. There are 2 that come with mochiweb but I have been having some problems with it.
