My Rails Day entry: internet command line
Well, my entry for the 24-hour Rails Day competition is here: http://yubnub.org . It''s a web app called YubNub that implements the grandiose idea of a "command line for the Web OS". Type "gim porsche 911" to do a Google Image search for Porsche 911 cars. Type "random 1000" for a random number between 1 and 1000. Type "tts David Heinemeier Hansson is cool" to have it speak those words. Anyone can add commands by providing an appropriate URL, so it is "social". Jon
Jon- This is a sweet idea! I think its really cool. Good job. -Ezra On Jun 7, 2005, at 8:20 AM, JonathanAquino.11106565-opCBI309nnGakBO8gow8eQ@public.gmane.org wrote:> Well, my entry for the 24-hour Rails Day competition is here: > http://yubnub.org > .

Incidentally, I tried to submit Yubnub to Digg.com but it appears someone else has already got there... except I can''t find the article to Digg it as Digg.com''s search is a bit flaky.

Any ideas? :-SAhh, it did work second time around, I just had to *really* tell it: http://digg.com/links/Yubnub.org_-_A_(social)_command_line_for_the_web And there''s also already a Firefox search box plugin for it: http://mycroft.mozdev.org/download.html?name=yubnub&submitform=Find+search+plugins ~Dave -- Dave Silvester Rent-A-Monkey Website Development Web: http://www.rentamonkey.com/
Nice one! The commands seem to be more creative than the ones at http://dozomo.com Cheers, -Ralph.

That''s beautyful! How about providing a way to give *some* ruby code for the new commands?

I really like this, Jonathan. Not only does it feel polished, it demonstrates Rails use to build what I think of as a non-prototypical Rails application. Nice Job.
