HTTParty: Quick Web Service Consumption From Any Ruby Class (13)
on Ruby Inside (756) permalinkHTTParty is a new Ruby library by John Nunemaker (of railstips.org fame) that makes it a snap to build classes that can use Web-based APIs and related services. At its simplest, you include the HTTParty module within a class, which gives your class a "get" method that can retrieve data over HTTP. Further directives, however, instruct HTTParty to parse results (XML, JSON, and so on), define base URIs for the requests, and define HTTP authentication ...Shared by Adam (34) amit rathore (36) Carl Fyffe (37) Devin Dawson (16) IceskYsl (84) jetienne (53) maui (29) Mike Subelsky (25) Robert Dempsey (71) Sam (30) Tom Klaasen (1) Tony Buser (61) xeal (58)Contribute comment

Silverback: Easy Usability Testing (8)
on WebWorkerDaily (2322) permalinkIf you build software or web applications, sooner or later you need to ask what actual users think of your software. Silverback is a new OS X package designed to make this process simple and easy. Set it up on a Mac with a cam (the built-in iSight on a MacBook works fine), and launch a new session. The software sits quietly in the background, recording video, audio, and the contents of the screen.

The #1 mistake hosting providers make for MySQL servers (7)
on MySQL Performance Blog (177) permalinkThis article is not meant to malign hosting providers, but I want to point out something you should be aware of if you’re getting someone else to build and host your servers for you. Most hosting providers — even the big names — continue to install 32-bit GNU/Linux operating systems on 64-bit hardware. This is a serious mistake. You have to tell them to install a 64-bit operating system. If you don’t then you will ...Shared by alexbig (30) bddemir (19) Dr. Loboto (37) maui (29) Nicolas Lehuen (30) Pat (98) snakk (18)

Starling: A Ruby Persistent Queue Server That Speaks Memcached (27)
on Ruby Inside (756) permalinkIt's been around for a while now, but Starling is a "light-weight persistent queue server that speaks the MemCache protocol." Starling makes it ridiculously easy to set up a network-accessible queue (or many queues) for, say, asynchronous job processing between multiple processes and machines. It was developed by Twitter to handle the heavy amount of queueing necessary to keep their service ticking over. Starling is proven in production, with not only Twitter using it in ...Shared by Brent (136) Brian Landau (45) Carl Fyffe (37) codeslinger (90) Colin Steele (8) dH (26) Dr. Ernie (163) Edin (55) elijah.wright (110) Eric Steil III (8) genki (52) glongman (53) hornbeck (38) iBspoof (73) jetienne (53) John (51) Keith (25) ktsugita (41) Laurent Bois (27) maui (29) Mike F (2153) mndoci (210) Stu (40) Ted (42) Tim (63) zapnap (109) 小影 (26)Contribute comment
