Launching Soon Jump to Story

Last week, Satish Chauhan created and released a Rails plugin called Launching Soon which makes the process of creating that initial launch page for a new web app as painless as possible. With the gem, you get a temporary landing page, which is interpretted with ERB, and also a simple interface to Campaign Monitor, Mail Chimp, or a local CSV file to easily collect your visitors' email addresses. Really useful for the next time you're launching a new web app.
