Others have already mentioned Sinatra, which looks nice.  Another
framework which also allows starting very simple is Ramaze:
[ http://ramaze.net/ ]


  require 'ramaze'

  class MainController < Ramaze::Controller
    def index
      "Hello, World! Server clock reads: #{Time.now}"
    end
  end

  Ramaze.start :port => 9001, :adapter => :webrick


At this point the HTTP server is running on a custom port.  However,
it's not difficult to integrate that with the webserver, as described
here: http://wiki.ramaze.net/Deployment
