Where is the best place to store global methods - a module or the

I currently see is when a method is in the application class, it needs
"appclassname." appended to the start of the line. I'm sure there's
differences deep down in the runtime code...would someone like to enlighten
me?

Storing them in one or more modules make them easier to incorporate into
other projects.


They should be slightly faster to call as well since RB doesn't have to get
the application object first.

This seems to be going one way. Is there any reason not to put something in a module?
