Find(ing) the best ski instructors and guides!

They approached me trough Camplight for the creation of a Facebook game. As I am a huge snow sports fan and me and Mitko from Metareading have been thinking about creating a similar project I could not say no to them. They turned out to be really fun to work with and we will be doing more Facebook games in the future!

Their platform is Grails based so for me it is very interesting to be working with Java again after so many years. I have to say Grails is very interesting, intuitive and easy to work with. Of course you need to have a lot of RAM but, hey, no big deal. I also got to work with IntelliJ Idea, the mother of my favorite PHP Storm.
