Just a heads-up: signing in with GitHub automatically puts you in both the Remote and In-Person lists if you just cancel out of the form that pops up after you authenticate.
Yup. That's intentional for now. We assume that you signed up for a reason. You just didn't tell us exactly why. So we make a broad assumption. ;)
What does this site do? Is it a directory of developers who are willing to pair, or something more/else? Can I find out without signing up?
Ok, we kind of glossed over that. I'll update the about page.
In a nutshell: we're about helping kindred developer spirits find one another for local/remote pairing. Later on, I'm hoping to add more features to actively mediate the experience.
I'd love to integrate with pair.io to help other people remote pair. But, for now, I use a simple arrangement of SSH+tmux+vim+skype to remote pair with folks when I do.

Why is this Ruby-specific? I see other language tags in other people's interests.
Totally. Nola already had the domain so we went with that. I still see the app as an experiment. Once we get things more nailed down, I'm thinking about opening it up beyond Ruby.
Besides, frankly, we "Rubyists" tend to be polyglots. That is to say: there's nothing stopping Java developers from signing up. :D
