Episode #170 - April 26, 2011

Nathaniel Bibler Carlos Souza

It was not such a good_friday after the cloud got it's butt kicked last Thursday, but we're still here to go over some asynchronous job options, a new interactive Ruby console, image diffs, and an interactive rails.js on this episode of Ruby5.

This episode is sponsored by Top Ruby Jobs. Everyone deserves to love their job (and it's probably in Ruby).
