Asynchronous Processing with Actors and girl_friday

I’ve posted an introduction to using Actors for safe and easy concurrency with Ruby and then created a gem, girl_friday, which uses Actors to provide a next generation message queueing system. If you’re thinking of using delayed_job or Resque for your next project, take a look at girl_friday too!

Why did you named it girl_friday?

One more question. Is it ok if i’ll use it with Ruby 1.9.2?

Ivan, both questions are answered in the project README: https://github.com/mperham/girl_friday Good luck!
