It’s a social network for people with Celiac disease and other forms of Gluten Intolerance. It’s designed around the resources that that community has trouble getting reliable information about on the internet, and I think that it’s coming along pretty well.

Right now, it’s looking like that will be done and in a somewhat stable state by 7/15. It’s based on rails and hosted at slicehost right now, although I suspect that it will be moving to Amazon EC2, CloudFront and S3 as it scales to make things easier. It’s a rails/mysql application for the most past, although it would probably run on other db backends.

It’s been an interesting time taking this entire application from vision to deployment, and it’s been a good time. Currently it’s in a beta state, and is soft launched to let interested people enter resources and test the system.
