I tried using Net::HTTP but I'm not sure how to get the HTTP response code. 
I tried the following and don't see the response code (200, 301, 302,
etc.) -- sorry I might not have mentioned that I only need the response
code.  I'm going to try to use Net::HTTP because I saw that it can follow
redirects.  That would be useful.

Not enough info here:
response.each {|key, value| puts "#{key} is #{value}\n\n}
