TSOT hosting Ruby/Rails Project Night tonight in Toronto

by Tris Hussey on January 8th, 2008

Lots of action going on in the Ruby and Rails communities of late.  I haven’t been following that sector much so I don’t know if this is a resurgence or just kicking off 2008 with a bang. Regardless, in well about an hour from now (5:30 PM ET) the doors are open and it looks like, in addition to food, there are going to be some great speakers on tap:

  • Yours Truly [editor’s note-that would be Joey], on the lessons and challenges of Zed Shaw’s rant
  • Andrew Burke on the business and technical aspects of his current Rails project
  • Hampton Catlin on Ziplocal.com
  • Mike Ferrier on The Score’s iPhone application

The event will take place at TSOT’s office — 151 Bloor Street West (on the south side, just east of Avenue Road), suite 1130. The doors open at 5:30 p.m., during which time we’ll serve food. Presentations start at 6-ish, with breaks in between and some time for socializing afterwards. Admission is free, but space is limited — to register, please email joey.devilla[at]tsotinc.com.

If you have a tech or social media event in Canada that you’d like me to spread the word about … let me know!

Update: I heard from the folks at TSOT and the project night was a great success!  Joey has all the deets on his Global Nerdy blog.

    Tris and readers,

    Glad to see word of TSOT’s premiere Ruby on Rails Project Night has reached this far! The evening was a great success, with about 50 in attendance and lots of great feedback so far. If anyone is interested in learning more, the contact info is posted above. Thanks to Andrew, Hampton and Mike - and of course Joey :) - for their demos and we look forward to our next event: February 12th
