Collabbit is a web-based communication tool which helps coordinate and organize relief efforts in times of disaster and recovery. It aims to eliminate burdensome conference calls between the various parties involved, replacing them with quick and easy updates online, as well as provide a written record of the progress of the event.

One such domain is localhacks.com, which redirects *.localhacks.com to localhost.)

For editing Ruby files (.rb), please have your editor configured to use spaces instead of tabs, and have the tab width set to two spaces. For editing CSS and Erb templates, please have your editor configured to use tabs, not spaces. We are planning to migrate all templates to Haml and all CSS to Sass over the summer. Once that's complete, we'll standardize on two spaces for all filetypes.
In addition, please always indent nested block HTML tags, and nest CSS hierarchically. For a style example, see this gist.
