The MOle allows you to track user's interactions with your ruby application and closely monitors how your customers are using your application. This is a must cheaper way than to hire a monitoring service and produces much more detailed information on your application behavior and usage. To boot your managers will love you !

Whether you are releasing a new application or improving on an old one, it is always a good thing to know if anyone is using your application and if they are, how they are using it. What features are your users most fond of and which features find their way into the abyss? Using the MOle you'll be able to rapidly assess whether or not your application is a hit and if your coolest features are thought as such by your users. You will be able to elegantly record user interactions and leverage these findings for the next iteration of your application.

The MOle was initialy released as a Rails plugin, but we found the behavior usefull in other types of projects such as Merb or straight up ruby applications, and decided to re-release it as a gem instead.
