Hi everyone,

rails day results are officially in.

Go to http://railsday.com to have a look. I would be interested to
know if anyone has any different favorites from rails day?

Weird how the top-ranking site is broken. :(

It sort of worked for me, though that included the JavaScript "This was
not coded in time" message boxes.

The 3rd place site failed to run.

YubNub: Was this completed within the timespan?

It has two nice features: It runs, and it's finished.

It is nice! Try this:

Open Firefox.
Browse to about:config
Find keyword.URL
Change it to http://75.railsday.rufy.com/parser/parse?command=
Restart Firefox

Now, from the address bar, you can type "define rails" and it will
take you to Answers.com, or you can use any other search put in by
other people. Your address bar just became the web OS command line!
nice :)

Ah.

I'm too lazy to open a browser, though. I have a Ruby script that takes
command-line parameters and calls out to yubnub.com. So, from a dos box
I can run

yub define Nitro


Now the address bar that just became the web OS command line has just
become the OS command line address bar!

(BTW, wouldn't the URL http://yubnub.org/parser/parse?command= be better
than the potentially transient railsday URL?)

Sorry about the broken apps, they should all work without a glitch now.
