I'm hearing good things about a Rackspace company named Mosso,
http://www.mosso.com.
It's could computing, and you only pay for what you use. Their prices
are better than Slicehost, so they're worth considering if you're
looking for a Rails host.
Do you have a great Rails host you want to share? Tell us about it.

I just setup an account on Mosso this week. So far I've only spun up
simple instances, but I'm impressed with what I've seen. I'll blog
about it once I've spent a little more time with it. I believe
Readernaut is going to be switching to Mosso at some point soon as
they're about half the price for comparable equipment.
Another cloud hosting provider to checkout if you're deploying Rails
is Heroku (http://heroku.com/). They have free hosting at a basic
level, and you can scale up to massive sizes if you need it. They're
built on top of EC2 and specifically a Rails shop. Definitely worth
looking into if you're looking for that route.

I have some embarrassingly simple and straightforward needs, so I just
bought a year of railsplayground.com for $60 earlier this year. Also,
I've come to love their chat.hostingplayground.com for both rails and
moral support.

Aww, I can't believe I haven't inspired you all to use some co-lo'd
Mac Minis for all your serving needs :-D

For my personal stuff, as we've discussed I've been on Dreamhost for
several years. I never had a major problem with them until a couple of
weeks ago--basically boiling down to inadequate resource allocation to
their Apache installs. My hunch is that as more people are using Rails/
Django/etc. in shared hosting environments, this is going to be a
bigger and bigger problem. The company I currently help out with some
stuff on DH may move to another provider in the next few months. For
my personal stuff I'm currently not hosting any Rails apps, but may
consider a move myself if and when the need arises. I'm just trying to
avoid the extra sysadmin work for as long as possible.
