Hi all,

I was having trouble finding some interesting rubyists to follow on  
twitter. Since my company is already playing around with tracking  
things on twitter, I took a bunch of ruby & rails related terms and  
created a ruby specific tracker. It’s kind of basic, but I thought  
that some of you might also find it useful:

> **[Shoes, Sneakers, Boots, & Clothing + FREE SHIPPING | Zappos.com](https://www.zappos.com)**
>
> GET FREE SHIPPING & RETURNS! We have 1000s of styles of shoes & Zappos legendary 365-day return policy + 24/7 friendly customer service. Call 1-800-92

Also looking for suggestions for other terms to track (current ones  
are listed in the upper left).

Let me know what you think… thanks!

P.S. I also posted this to ruby-talk - apologies to those that lie in  
the intersection of the two groups. ☹

Really cool, thanks for sharing!

What about to include “mongrel” to that list of terms?

You got it! Updated:

Hopefully it doesn’t end up with a lot of tweets about dogs. Already  
have enough about Ruby Tuesdays, slippers and grapefruits. 🙂
