MeetingKoreans.com launched using Ruby on Rails

On Monday, November 7 MeetingKoreans.com was officially launched. This is the first site betweenGo has designed and built from the ground up using Ruby on Rails.

Within 24 hours we have received excellent feedback, had almost 20 users register, and squashed a few bugs. We look forward to seeing MeetingKoreans.com grow in both number of registered users and number of features.

MeetingKoreans.com is hosted on Dreamhost which we highly recommend. The website runs on Apache 1.3 with FastCGI enabled. The source is also hosted on Dreamhost using Subversion.

MeetingKoreans.com uses, in addition to all the standard Rails gems, the Salted Hash Login Generator gem and the RMagick ruby library interface.
