Uncharted 2 is an amazing game!

with 2 comments

This weekend I spent most of it playing Uncharted 2. It’s a really powerful game that really pulls you into the story. I love games with adventurous movie-like scripts. It’s so addicting that I think I’m about to beat the game. I’m actually contemplating not watching the Giants-Falcons game going on right now and finishing the game. haha. If only we had 3 day weekends.

without comments

How to add a class to the form_for tag in Ruby on Rails

<% form_for :user, :url => users_path,:html => { :class => ’standard-form’ } do |f| -%>

That produces:

As you can see I added a class called “standard-form” to the form tag.
