- No methods more than 10 lines
- Use database migrations
- after committing a db migration, don't change it. Just add Another migration 
- Thin Controllers, Avoid sharing more than one or two instance variables b/w controllers and views
- use REST at all times
- Use one type of http request per action, do not use "request.post?" type methods.
- Avoid using comments. If unclear, Refactor.
- use "h" in views, to escape everything 
- do not use abbreviations for variable names  
- follow naming conventions don't use variable names like photoalbum use photo_album instead

  end

# should we do  something like below make more sense
