I feel browing through API is just painfully slow, so I just put on a  
new site (done totally in ROR and jQuery) that supports quick search

Hopefully it will be helpful to others.

[http://www.railsbrain.com/](http://www.railsbrain.com/) and [http://www.rubybrain.com/](http://www.rubybrain.com/) are also ajax  
based api documentations that support search and even allow you to  
download whole documentation and contribute to it using git.
