You should use http://apidock.com/rails it has documentation for all rails versions
This is a nice resource. I actually wanted to do something like this for web design resources way back in the day, but never got around to it. I thought about it a lot, and the secret sauce for me was the ability to tag version applicability of resources, and to deprecate resources in favor of new ones. This is particularly useful in the Rails world where whole swaths of blog articles are obsoleted on a regular basis (think Rails 3 articles from January 2010). Maybe the reason I never got around to it was because I was too ambitious?
I was thinking of making this a little more general purpose (instead of being rails specific), as this could be a useful resource for other technologies as well. Maybe each technology could get a top level url? Like whatever.com/rails and whatever.com/django?
At that point, however, would a wiki be a better format?

P.S. I use this every day, so it's likely to stay up to date!
pretty good. You should include railscasts possibly add a section for good rails blogs.
That's a good idea - I'll add a separate section when I get a chance. It'll let me separate links to specific articles vs links to a general purpose resource.
But for now... Gotta keep working on hooking up Facebook OAuth2 to my current project ;)

Not everyone is quite ready to switch to 3.x and having the 2.x documentation around is a lifesaver.
It's sad that http://rails.rubyonrails.org/ doesn't seem to rank very high for "rails 2" prefixed queries on Google.
