Looking forward. Please cover chef and puppet, rake/sake, common patterns for shell scripts.<p>Automating ssh, run a remote instance on the cloud preferably with amazon ec2

Automation will be a focus. Thanks again for all the feedback. Let me know if you have anymore.

Sockets, log parsing, text file manipulation, processes, etc.

automatic development setup on local development machine via vagrant , chef/puppet will be nice.
