Are they still supporting the herokugarden editor? That thing was awesome since designers could get started w/o installing anything at all.

Feels like they are no longer supporting that. Is that right?

The problem with the editor is that it gave people the impression that Heroku was a toy, which is what I thought when I tried it.

I retried it 2 months ago and saw it is definitely not a toy. I think it rocks. I love that recent article with the headline 'you have to be an idiot not to use Heroku'.

Correct, the editor is no longer supported. We hope to bring it back sometime in the future.

Now that will be specially interesting for people that want to develop using Chrome OS computers.

You could build on bespin, they have git and hg hook, I guess a heroku hook would be less work than supporting a whole editor.
