Ruby Conf '09

The Mountain West Ruby Conference was a smash!  We covered a wide range of topics that really made me pleased to be a part of the community (at least in attendance!)  Some of my favorite presentations were Daniel Philpott's "Tiger Team" and Jon Crosby's introduction to Middleware (aka Rack).  It was also really cool to see James Britt's "Wii" link-up and hear him play some wild MIDI instruments on his "air wand".  I'm sure he'll be tuning it in the near future :)

Oh, and if those presentations weren't enough to make the conference worthwhile (they were!) I also discovered that everyone was Twittering there.  So I guess I know people who twitter now :)  I found out about twitterfall.com which was a great way to keep "up to date" on all things #mwrc.

I haven't had a chance to look yet, but from what I've heard the conference will be available on video at confreaks.
