Daniel writes "Developers have created a new Rails framework for SQL, SQL on Rails. Check out the screen cast that shows you how to develop an internet search engine with three lines of code. Version 4.1 of the SQL on Rails framework is available for download on the site, and the O'Reilly title is expected to hit shelves next month." ZOMG L@@K at the kitten site it powers!@#!11

Actually, SQL needs to be on rails. (Score:4, Funny)
Rails help to keep SQL on the tracks and to prevent queries from running unrestrained against a database. With rails, you don't have to worry about unsafe queries against your database. Everything is tightly controlled, and you can have a simple three line search engine without a great deal of overhead that normally goes into all of that normalization, checking, deadlock prevention, etc etc.
Finally! I'm waiting for HTML on Rails next!

From the INSTALL documentation in the download:
You don't need to be root because the SQL On Rails installer will just use the appropriate priviledge escalation method for your OS version.ghehe..
