[Rails] Using Meta Data in a database field in a View

Hello...

Given a database with records like the following
Table: AuditLog
Fields: ID | USERID | TYPE | TIME | DATA

id:1, userId:1, type:PHOTO, time:2008-10-15 12:00:00, data:
{photo_id:2089, photoname:"A trip to the beach"}

Lets say the database had 50 records, with Rails How can I loop
through the results as follows:

<ul>
<li> id, user_id, data.photoID, data.PhotoName</li>
</ul>

The main thing I don't get is how to extract what's inside the data
column. Example given:
@mystuff = AuditLog.all
How to display something like mystuff.data.photo_id

Thanks
