So far I have been doing all my CouchDB queries using “temporary views” which are Javascript strings which are POSTed to the database and used to select the records you're interested in. A more efficient way to do it is to save the Javascript strings as documents, these can be called with less traffic and a simpler API . “Permanent views” also create cached indexes, so they offer performance advantages over temporary views as well.

What do we have here? It would seem to be yet another blog, and it is. This one, however, is built with merb and CouchDB so building it gave me a chance to experiment with some interesting projects that I don't get to use in my daily life as a professional web developer.
