How to setup Heroku Hostname SSL with GoDaddy SSL Certificate and Zerigo DNS
Heroku recently added an exciting new 'Hostname SSL' option.  This option offers the broad compatibility of IP-based SSL, but at 1/5 the price ($20 / month at the time of this writing).  
 
The following tutorial explains how to use Heroku's new 'Hostname SSL' option on your Heroku project.  Before we begin, let's list what we're using here:

    * Heroku Hostname SSL
    * GoDaddy Standard SSL Certificate
    * Zerigo DNS

Instrument Anything in Rails 3

With Rails 3.0 released a few weeks ago I've migrated a few apps and I'm constantly finding useful new improvements. One such improvement is the ability to log anything in the same way that Rails internally logs ActiveRecord and ActionView. By default Rails 3 logs look slightly spiffier than those produced by Rails 2.3: (notice the second line has been cleaned up)

Started GET "/" for 127.0.0.1 at Mon Sep 06 01:07:11 -0400 2010
  Processing by HomeController#index as HTML
  User Load (0.2ms)  SELECT `users`.* FROM `users` WHERE (`users`.`id` = 3) LIMIT 1
