I mentioned it in the comments on the article, but I typically just make my Wordpress blog use the same database as my Rails app. Then in the Rails app you can create a BlogPost model or whatever to use anywhere in your rails app.

You can either install the WP app on the same server as your Rails app, or you can just create a custom user and SSH tunnel for your DB between the DB server and the WP server.

I had this problem recently. And the solution was really simple.

My goal was to display in an Rails App the latest entries from a wordpress blog.

In the end I used this http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxfeeds/documentation/ which worked perfectly, without any hacks in Rails.

You can check it out on www.2performant.com at the bottom. It's all javascript.

Nice. That's definitely an attractive option.

If you figure it out I'd like to hear more -- have a project that I want to use PuSH with but I haven't started it for this kind of reason exactly.
