A dashboard, seriously suitable for keeping Trikelings up-to-date on the progress of their projects. Works great on a big-ass TV in West Melbourne, Australia, but you may find that it works pretty well wherever you are, too.
Serious kudos to Tom Sommer (github.com/tsommer), and many other Trikelings (see github.com/tricycle/dashboard).
Install the gems using +bundle install+. Dup config.sample.rb, only +s/sample.//+. Update the config.rb file to point to the correct DB. Do like you would with any other sinatra (www.sinatrarb.com/) app.
Cron the .rb scripts at script/ to run regularly.
