Loginbuilder.com offers Single Sign On (SSO) service for multiple website owners. Make use of this service to give your users share one login to use all your websites.

[Rails] Re: Best Practices for Multiple site One login
There are a couple ways you can go. If you're in a corporate environment (as I was when I last did something like this), you may want to integrate with an LDAP server of some kind (in my case it was ActiveDirectory 2008). You'd then authenticate your users through that LDAP server across all the sites you're running. You can even set this kind of configuration up outside of a corporate environment - having your own LDAP server (Open LDAP is a damn sight cheaper than ActiveDirectory though!). Just make sure that if you do it this way, you set up your LDAP server to be inaccessible from the outside world as a security precaution. Another possible route, similar to what Jaymin mentioned above, would be using something like the Omniauth gem to allow users to authenticate with their Google, Twitter, Facebook accounts. Ryan Bates over at railscasts.com has several great screencasts on omniauth, and I strongly encourage you to check them out! If you really (and I mean reeeaaly) want to roll your own, you could. You could set up a RESTful service that would communicate with your three apps and allow them to authenticate a user or not. I'd recommend against rolling your own simply because when you do that, you run the risk of overlooking a few details that could open your app up to various hacks (think weak encryption ciphers, broken session handling, etc.), and the open source projects already out there have had a lot more eyes look at their code to make sure it doesn't have any gaping holes in it than anything you could roll on your own without open sourcing it and lots of scrutiny. Besides, why do the work when you can have somebody else do it? :-) There are a lot of different ways to go about it, but those are a few options for you to take a look at! Good luck!
