ABOUT RUBY ON RAILS



The Ideals of Ruby’s Creator
[source: http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/about/]

Ruby is a language of careful balance. Its creator, Yukihiro “matz” Matsumoto, blended parts of his favorite languages (Perl, Smalltalk, Eiffel, Ada, and Lisp) to form a new language that balanced functional programming with imperative programming.

He has often said that he is “trying to make Ruby natural, not simple,” in a way that mirrors life.

Building on this, he adds:
Ruby is simple in appearance, but is very complex inside, just like our human body1.

RubyGems
[From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia]

RubyGems is a package manager for the Ruby programming language that provides a standard format for distributing Ruby programs and libraries (in a self-contained format called a "gem"), a tool designed to easily manage the installation of gems, and a server for distributing them. It is analogous to EasyInstall for the Python programming language. RubyGems is now part of the standard library from Ruby version 1.9.

The issue is in how your staff configures Facebook, and what information they place on it. A few tips to pass on to your staff: Don't allow anyone that isn't part of your network of 'friends' to see your profile. Don't allow non-friends to see your friends. Why?
