Configuring Cherokee
If you are reading this post, odds are you have previously read about Cherokee. I've written many times about how easy and straightforward the Cherokee configuration is, and how simple it is to configure other third party web applications on Cherokee.
In this occasion, I'd like to draw your attention to a few videos on how to configure some of the most widespread web applications and frameworks on Cherokee:
Most of the videos are less than 2 minutes long - including the opening and the ending. That should give you an idea on how plain and simple the configuration process is.
This first batch covers: PHP (MP4, OGV), Django with Flup (MP4, OGV), Django with uWSGI (MP4, OGV), Ruby on Rails (MP4, OGV), Wordpress (MP4, OGV), Video Streaming (MP4, OGV), and a General Introduction (MP4, OGV).

I have to be honest here, I find Cherokee is harder to configure than any of the servers which rely on human-edited configuration files. I've tried to like Cherokee, honestly, but I find the nomenclature just doesn't work for me. I also found it cumbersome to fire up the server in a special mode so that I can edit its properties.
@Mike: I guess you tested Cherokee expecting it to be an old-school web server on wrapping paper. It is not, and that is a very good thing, actually. :-) The nomenclature may be slightly different, that's right. However, you could think of the change in the wording as a result of the evolution.
I like the ads - and I'm eager to start a more productive life (once I find some time;-)
