mname: my first Ruby project to get meaning of name

I officially start leaning Ruby today! I googled and found out some books, some tutorials too! After getting over basic stuff such as: var, data type, iterator, class object,…I start to make the very first project! But I hate doing what the books/tutorials tell us! It is the job of monkeys, not a developers’ so I write a smalll tool to gather meaning of your name! It can run from command line as below:

mname vincent

Actually, it send request to http://www.thinkbabynames.com/,which is a website which give us lots of useful information about people’s name, to get meaning data! I then use some Regex to filter data I need and output it!
You can get it on github: http://github.com/kureikain/mname
