    It’s great to see so many ruby conferences coming up. I’ll be attending my first ruby conference at RubyConf India and am looking forward to hearing some big names from the ruby world speak there.

    In Sept. the 3rd annual WindyCityRails.org conference will take place in Chicago, IL (US)

    Last year’s turnout was impressive, and the quality of the conference, from the location, topics/presenters, audience, and networking opportunity was perfect for a one day event. Heck, even the food was great!

    (the videos of the event were really top notch as well http://windycityrails.org/videos)

  16. Nick Hammond on 01 Mar 17:17:
