 wherever the model was saved or not, and you can (and usually do) take
 different actions depending on the result of calling +@post.save+.
 
+h4. Showing posts
+
+Before trying to create a new post, let's add the +show+ action, which
+will be responsible for showing our posts. Open +config/routes.rb+
+and add the following route:
+
+<ruby>
+get "posts/:id" => "posts#show"
+</ruby>
+
+The special syntax +:id+ tells rails that this route expects an +:id+
+parameter, which in our case will be the id of the post. Note that this
+time we had to specify the actual mapping, +posts#show+ because
+otherwise Rails would not know which action to render.
+
+As we did before, we need to add the +show+ action in the
++posts_controller+ and its respective view.
+
+<ruby>
+def show
+  @post = Post.find(params[:id])
+end
+</ruby>
+
+A couple of things to note. We use +Post.find+ to find the post we're
+interested in. We also use an instance variable (prefixed by +@+) to
+hold our reference to the post object. We do this because Rails will pass all instance
+variables to the view.
+
+Now, create a new file +app/view/posts/show.html.erb+ with the following
+content:
+
+<erb>
+<p>
+  <strong>Title:</strong>
+  <%= @post.title %>
+</p>
+
+<p>
+  <strong>Text:</strong>
+  <%= @post.text %>
+</p>
+</erb>
+
+Finally, if you now go to
+"http://localhost:3000/posts/new":http://localhost:3000/posts/new you'll
+be able to create a post. Try it!

 h4. Adding a Link
 
 To hook the posts up to the home page you've already created, you can add a link
