I am working on a project that uses quite a bit of conditional logic
to display information about groups in a list.  The partial that
renders the group attributes will display different info based on
whether the user is a) logged in, b) the creator of the group c) a
member of the group, etc.

I find myself using a lot of if/else conditions to render things as
they should be.  The thing I dislike the most is that I'm writing the
same logic in different places.  For instance, if a user is an admin
I'm doing:

<% if current_user.admin? %>
    something...
<% end %>

...and I do that two or three times in the same template.  What are
some other strategies.  Can I use respond_to?  How do people make
their view code more readable?  If there are any good resources people
know about for this, please respond!

Thanks,
-A
