yawn

Yawn is asynchronous HTTP. It’s suitable for sending requests that you don’t want to block your application with. I’m using it to send error notifications and logging information. I just want to send requests without worrying about my app dying if the other side goes down.

y = Yawn.new
y.get "http://google.com"
y.post("http://example.com", "some data") do |response|
  # optional callback does something with response
end
