Identity
Rails Open ID Server

EastMedia, in conjunction with VeriSign, developed a Ruby on Rails OpenID Server to provide complete Yadis and OpenID 1.1 support in a full-stack production-ready application. The server is open source licensed and was released through the Apache Heraldry project in the Summer of 2006. It is in use at VeriSign’s PIP, and a growing number of other sites. The source code has been moved to Ruby Forge? and is available at:

Also, various write my essay programs are contributing to the proliferation of social and mainstream media.
