Railsconf 2009 in Review
Posted by Gregg Pollack May 13, 2009 @ 07:04 PM
Railsconf wrapped up last week, and I think we all survived Vegas. If you weren’t able to make the conference, there is plenty of video, slides, and blog entries to get a taste of what went on.
First up you can get a summary of the conference by checking out my Railsconf in 34 minutes video. Thanks to O’Reilly you can also watch all the keynotes, the Rails Core panel, the Women in Rails panel, and the Ruby Heroes Award Ceremony. I also put together a few videos during the conference which were played before the Keynotes (Tutorial Day, Tuesday, Wednesday, and a demo of Rubystein thanks to the guys from Phusion).
If you’re looking for written material, the slides are available online and you can find a great list of blogs here which covered the event.
Unfortunately the sessions at the conference weren’t recorded, but we’re really hoping that this is the last year that happens.
Confreaks http://www.confreaks.com/ do very nice conference recording and their conference videos are excellent. I was hoping to find the videos of RailsConf 2009 on their pages.
Instead there are only a few amateur videos on blip.tv. What a shame: rails with it’s famous video tutorial once was on the forefront, an now???
OK, I hope for next year.

Thomas: Yeah, with all the small conferences (and Rubyconf) recording all the talks it’s certainly a shame that Railsconf hasn’t yet been able to jump on the bandwagon.
Nice work with your videos Gregg :)
