At SmartLogic we recently rebuilt our in rails. The previous version was a MediaWiki installation with a ton of content that had garnered a decent bit of Google juice that we did not want to lose. By setting up 301 permanent redirects for the old URL’s, we can hold onto that juice.

November 24th, 2009 by John TrupianoTimecop 0.2.0 Released: Freeze and Rebase Time in Ruby
December 24th, 2008 by John TrupianoI just released version 0.2.0 of this evening (morning).
The primary feature added was the distinction between “freezing” and “rebasing” time. In 0.1.0, Timecop.travel would actually freeze time. This is no longer the case. Rather, a time offset will be calculated, and a running clock is simulated by always offsetting the time returned by Time.now (and friends) by the original offset.
(Note that time can still be frozen with Timecop.freeze.)
