I noted this on the Rails list, and I should probably note it here too. The URL http://scott.elitists.net/view/17 is no longer valid because I upgraded my journal to use the new Routes in Rails 0.10.0 :) The link for that resource is: http://scott.elitists.net/scott/elite-journals-new-routes/view If you're following my Rails walk through, the tag URLs have also changed a bit, you can pick it up here: http://scott.elitists.net/tag/rails+walkthrough Thank you and sorry for any inconvenience! -Scott
