I didn't originally, but now I did. I added: require 'blackbook'
and now, I get no such file to load -- blackbook I've checked and blackbook.rb is installed here: C:\ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\blackbook-1.0.4\lib i don't have any idea how ruby looks for gems or where. this error tells me it can't find blackbook.rb. Any ideas?
