Blaine and the guys at Twitter just released Starling as a gem. Starling is Twitters code and messaging system that they use in production across their clusters:
“Starling is a light-weight persistent queue server that speaks the MemCache protocol. It was built to drive Twitter’s backend, and is in production across Twitter’s cluster.”
Check it out: http://rubyforge.org/projects/starling/
