We are proud to announce today the official launch of Acts As Community. Acts As Community is a social network built on Intridea’s SocialSpring Platform for Ruby enthusiasts of all kinds (including Rails Developers, Merbivores, and those beyond the web app realm). Our goal is to provide a centralized resource for Ruby developers everywhere to gather and interact.

We’re very excited about the potential for the site. Right now, you can organize groups and events, share questions and code snippets as well as photos, videos and your blog’s RSS feed, and post job listings for interested Rubyists. We will also be continuing to roll out new features with a focus on open source and community development. The most important part of any social network, however, is you, the users! We hope you find the site useful and take part in the construction of a new community.
