Ruby Hoedown '09

This weekend I was in Nashville, TN for Ruby Hoedown 2009.  There were some great talks – my favorites were Ben Mabey’s Cucumber talk, Luigi Montanez’s talk on using public data APIs for civic coding, and Jim Weirich’s excellent (and impromtu) talk on Git’s internals.

After my recent difficulties with getting Rhodes working for mobile development, I was really excited about Leon Gersing’s talk about Appcelerator Titanium, but I missed all but the last five minutes of it because the schedule was changed for some reason (I was skipping what I *thought* was something else). =/  Hopefully he’ll post some slides.

The resort where the event was held was horrid, but the conference was a lot of fun.  Hope they continue this next year.
