popcorn-app
An experiment using the peerflix module of nodejs and connecting a bunch of APIs.
friendly_id
FriendlyId is the “Swiss Army bulldozer” of slugging and permalink plugins for ActiveRecord. It allows you to create pretty URL’s and work with human-friendly strings as if they were numeric ids for ActiveRecord models.
stringex
Some [hopefully] useful extensions to Ruby’s String class. It is made up of three libraries: ActsAsUrl [permalink solution with better character translation], Unidecoder [Unicode to Ascii transliteration], and StringExtensions [miscellaneous helper methods for the String class].
ruby_events
A really simple event/hook/callback implementation that extends the Object class by default, or can be used to extend modules and classes as well. Now all your objects can join in the fun of firing events! RubyEvents even offers you callbacks on already defined methods, without having to do the hard work yourself - yes this means you can have callbacks on standard library methods without having to monkey patch yourself!

Simple HTTP and REST client for Ruby, inspired by microframework syntax for specifying actions.
