Hi guys,  
I’ve just launched TimeCert at [http://timecert.org](http://timecert.org) which is a simple  
service for proving that something existed at a certain time. This  
could be any digital content such as email, source code, blog post  
etc.

It was written in Why’s fantastic Camping framework over breakfast and  
was deployed on Mongrel.

I will release all the source as well as a ruby client library on  
rubyforge when the project has been accepted. The REST api is  
documented here:

[Just a moment...](http://neubia.com/archives/000483.html) so feel free to hack your own  
if you want.

Regards  
Pelle

Hey,

Take a look at the Mongrel pre-release for your site. Install it with  
gem  
install mongrel --source=[http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/releases/](http://mongrel.rubyforge.org/releases/) It  
should  
work the same as what you’re running.
