The RubyNation Conference is a two-day technical conference focused on Ruby, Rails and other Ruby-related technical subjects. Speakers will include a mix of celebrity Ruby professionals and accomplished local speakers.
Keynotes will be 60-minute presentations, while all other sessions will be 45 minutes. We will have even more great speakers than last year's conference because, RubyNation 2009 will feature a combination of single and dual track format. Additionally, one session each day will be devoted to Lightning Talks, which will consist of ad hoc speakers covering brief, how-to topics. Go to the Speakers page to find out more about our scheduled presenters.
All of this adds up to two great days of Ruby topics!
Take your skills to the next level. Come join us on June 11 - 13 for the 2009 RubyNation Conference.
