MySQL server has gone away fix
# If your workers are inactive for a long period of time, they'll lose
# their MySQL connection.
#
# This hack ensures we re-connect whenever a connection is
# lost. Because, really. why not?
#
# Stick this in RAILS_ROOT/config/initializers/connection_fix.rb (or somewhere similar)

# Description: Simple demo to showcase Redis PubSub with EventMachine
#
# Update 7 Oct 2010:
# - This example does *not* appear to work with Chrome >=6.0. Apparently,
# the WebSocket protocol implementation in the cramp gem does not work
# well with Chrome's (newer) WebSocket implementation.
#
# Requirements:
# - rubygems: eventmachine, thin, cramp, sinatra, yajl-ruby
