Hey everyone!

We excited to announce a new version of [RubyURL.com](http://RubyURL.com) last night[1]. 🙂

- [http://rubyurl.com](http://rubyurl.com)

The new version was completely rewritten with Rails, PostgreSQL, and  
followed the BDD philosophy with RSpec. It’s also running on top of our  
soon-to-be-launched Rails hosting solution, Boxcar[2].

We’re planning to open source the application in the near future once we  
finish up a few things.

If you find any bugs, please report them at [http://rubyurl.com/n71](http://rubyurl.com/n71).

Enjoy!

[2] Rails Boxcar - [http://railsboxcar.com/](http://railsboxcar.com/)

Cheers,

Robby
