I run http://www.soyhost.com/ . I''m hoping after finals slow down to
actually get everything going on over there, but it''s free Rails
hosting. You don''t get a boatload of space, but it''s
something to
start with.
If you''re able to spend a little money then I suggest DreamHost or A
Small Orange; I''ve had a great experience with both of those using
Rails.
