I’ve been busy the past couple of weeks building out some major new features for onmydoorstep.com.au
So, I’m proud to present the On My Doorstep Blog and the addition of comments / discussion features across the entire site.
Building a blog and commenting system in Wicket was a pleasure, and a smooth development process. I know, I know; creating a blog isn’t exactly rocket science, but I continue to be impressed with the speed and ease with which it is possible to build out, componentize and refactor major features using Wicket. I have a hard time imagining going back to a Model-2 type web framework. I think it would feel like writing in assembly again.
I’ve also using the wicketstuff-rome integration for the RSS feed features.
The site also recently introduced Facebook profile picture and Gravatar integration (for people not using Facebook Connect).
Anyhow, subscribe to the RSS feed & stay tuned for more updates coming soon! 
Also hard at work on visural-wicket 0.6, should be out sometime this week or next.
