Want to learn about using Farday to do HTTP(s) in Ruby? I found @mislav's blog article an excellent introduction:

This request won’t work. GitHub API v3 is only accessible over encrypted SSL and we need to explicitly configure Net::HTTP for this. We don’t check the HTTP response code. The server could respond with a 302 (redirect), 401 (unauthorized) or 500 (server error). We should always supply a User-Agent header with information about what’s making these requests. The response payload is JSON, so it needs to be parsed before use.
