ExpiringMemoryStore
===================

Expiring MemoryStore is a modification to the default Rails MemoryStore which adds the :expires_in functionality that is so useful with Memcache.
Although this increases the memory overhead slightly,
it ensures that caches can be expired easily, without restarting your webserver.

Just add;
  config.cache_store = :expiring_memory_store
to your environment.rb.

Example
=======

  >> Rails.cache.write('are you there?', :im_still_here, :expires_in => 30)
  => :im_still_here

  >> Rails.cache.read('are you there?')
  => :im_still_here

wait 30 seconds

  >> Rails.cache.read('are you there?')
  => nil

WICKED!!!
