For those of you who don't like the current gem search engine at rubygems.org, I have deployed a better search engine at http://www.rubygemsearch.org/ . You can search Ruby gems by name, by description, or by other parameters. You can sort the results by number of downloads or by other parameters. Sorting by number of downloads allows you to see which of the gems in your search are the most popular. This helps you pick the better-known gems. If you're looking for a project to contribute to, sorting by the number of downloads will lead you to the projects that have a greater impact on the Ruby community. My next step is to give the rubygems.org search engine the improved search engine of rubygemsearch.org. In other words, my next step is to make my own site obsolete. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
