BetaBrite: Your name in lights with Ruby

- Nokogiri: A Faster, Better HTML and XML Parser for Ruby (than Hpricot)

- Building a Web App With Merb From Start to Finish



BetaBrite is a Ruby LCD sign library developed by Aaron Patterson. Since few people have LCD signs to play with, Aaron has set up a test-bed installation that you can use via DRb. Ingenious! Next I expect a Ruby blinkenlights library and DRb hookup.

There *is* a Ruby blinkenlights library. See http://blinkenlights.rubyforge.org/
(The number of light sources controlled is rather less than an office block though!)
