asynchronous http request in ruby

Question

 require \'net/http\'

  {\'link\' => \'http://www.google.com/\'},
  {\'link\' => \'http://www.facebook.com/\'},
 {\'link\' => \'http://www.yahoo.c

Generally, viable alternatives to using threads for this would be the use of a Fiber or you could use em-http-request. In the latter example you could leave out the callback handling for your particular purpose.
