[LRUG] [JOBS] 3 Unique Permanent Ruby on Rails Jobs

[Tim Cowlishaw]

Number 1 is almost definitely Media Service Provider (formally
Playlouder) - http://mediasp.com/ . I worked there a few years ago and
they're a fantastic bunch of people working on some really interesting
stuff. If you're looking for work, they'd be great people to talk to
(although I should also mention that we're hiring at Likely too!).

Cheers,

Tim
