Offline application with Ruby on Rails
I was wondering if anyone out there has had to develop an application that is able to collect data offline and then sync back up to a hosted database when an internet connection is available? If you have what resources out there did you use to create this configuration?

You could prob. use SQLite and run the DB locally and then either upload the file for processing or have your Rails app handle the sync once you tell it that it has a connection, but there''s certainly no automated way to do it, you''d have to write all the logic yourself.
