+1 for friendly_id as per ruby-toolbox.com
I'm using it on my current project
ie.
class Sport < ActiveRecord::Base
has_friendly_id :name, :use_slug => true
..
class League
has_friendly_id :name, :use_slug => true, :scope => :locale
..
class Team < ActiveRecord::Base
has_friendly_id :name, :u
class Product < AR::Base
def to_param
"#{self.id} #{self.name_or_other_string}".parameterize
end
end

Hi,
How about this?
class Product < AR::Base
def to_param
"#{self.id} #{self.name_or_other_string}"

This way, you don't need to replace your controller code to cater for
