OmniAuth: Standardized Multi-Provider Authentication OmniAuth is a new Rack-based authentication system for multi-provider external authentcation. OmniAuth is built from the ground up on the philosophy that authentication is not the same as identity, and is based on two observations: The traditional 'sign up using a login and password' model is becoming the exception, not the rule. Modern web applications offer external authentication via OpenID, Facebook, and/or OAuth. The interconnectable web is no longer a dream, it is a necessity. It is not unreasonable to expect that one application may need to be able to connect to one, three, or twelve other services. Modern authentication systems should allow a user's identity to be associated with many authentications. - Chu Yeow

"Hipmunk only displays flights that you’ll actually want to take, and it displays them in a user interface that shows you exactly how much you’ll pay and how long you’ll be traveling. When you see the results (see screenshot for example), you’ll never want to see flight results in any other format. It’s one of those that’s so obvious why didn’t I think of that moments. And all results are on one long page, making sorting and comparing much easier." - Paul Buchheit from Bookmarklet

I wonder how it knows which flights I'd actually want to take. - Gabe

It hides (under a button) the ones that are obviously bad because they leave earlier, arrive later, and cost more. Orbitz always shows me these dumb flights with 10 hour layovers. - Paul Buchheit

Any app where I can sort by agony is worth checking out. - Micah

Yeah, sort-by-agony would be a good feature for email too :) - Paul Buchheit

O-Yeeeah. :) - Micah

It would be awesome to be able to sort "by longest layover by city" so I could see if there are any friends or relatives I could visit during a business trip. - Gabe

Built on Tornado! http://groups.google.com/group... - Benjamin Golub

The UX is remarkable. Little things like Tabs, Permalink (that remembers all my searches) are very useful! And even though these features may seem "small", I believe that a lot of effort must have been invested to get them working so speedily. Just one last comment is that the prices are a little confusing though. - Winston Teo

Ben, wow, how cool is that. - Micah

That *is* cool (that it's built on Tornado). Makes me think about that conversation/debate in Wired today http://www.wired.com/magazin... where O'Reilly says that "Openness is where innovation happens." - Laura Norvig

A small but brilliant touch: a help file "tip" displayed while a request is processing. For software in general, I almost never want a random tip screen on application open, but having it in place of "Please wait..." makes a lot of sense. - Micah

Southwest is still way cheaper for the two flights I just booked (like 20% cheaper). And I like swa's UI for playing with dates a lot too. - Michael Leggett

And while I agree that this display is way better... I *hate* how pricing is displayed. I'm always confused what the price means. It says $378 under price. Is it $378 per leg or for the entire flight? Is it per person or for both people? I'd go so far as to say it is a bug that the final button says "Buy on Orbitz ($378)" and then Orbitz tells me it is in fact $756 b/c the $378 figure was per person (but never explained as such). - Michael Leggett

Michael: I agree. I never understood why you always have to tell it how many passengers on the search screen, but the the prices are per-passenger. - Gabe

Have you tried Ramen Santouka? http://www.hungrygowhere.com/singapo... - Winston Teo

Just tried recently actually, the soup saved its not-so-ideal noodles and pork. On the whole, it's actually quite decent by SG standards. - Chu Yeow

I can't really remember how the soup/noodles/pork taste like, but I rate it as one of the better ramen in SG. Ramen Play comes second. I don't like Ippudo and Marutama. - Winston Teo

Hey! I thought you don't take pork? - Winston Teo

tampopo is not bad also.... one of the better ones IMO. - qiaoling

Would go back again: Santouka, Ramen Play (saved by soup again), Yoshimaru, Nansuttei (sesame garlic oil makes the soup nice for first few mouthfuls). Don't like: Marutama, Noodle House Ken, Baikohken, Tampopo. No intention to try Ippudo. - Chu Yeow

I started eating pork after eating tonkatsu in Saboten and all the bbq pork in Korea... Still not a fan but not as repulsed as last time hah. - Chu Yeow

Ah. Gotta go try Yoshimaru, Nasuttei and Saboten! Thanks =) - Winston Teo

Ha np... These places still far from ichiran standard though. - Chu Yeow from iPhone
