Ruby / Rails Lightning Talks

We all have something interesting to share. Whether it's an application we are working on, a Ruby Gem we released, a library we implemented or some best practices we follow. You might not want to talk for an entire meetup session but what about 5 minutes? That's the plan for the next ruby meetup.

We will run 6 lightning talks: 5 minutes of talk + 5 minutes for questions.

Want to speak? Just add a comment to this meetup with a Title + Short description of your talk.

Looking for a few more 5-minute lightning talks! Help the Ruby community and feel awesome!

Current Talks:

Tatsuhiro Ujihisa: Ruby completion plugins of Vim: neocomplcache, RSense, and neco-rake. Adam Cooper: Talk about ActiveLayer which provides a simple way to apply a set of validations, attribute filtering to your models. Sudipta Ghose: Implementing a Ruby service bus using Goliath. Ian MacKinnon: Talk on transitioning an app from ActiveRecord to MongoMapper if that sparkles. Mark Latham: VoterMedia: Political reform for democracies and corporations. VoterMedia is a non-profit project to improve accountability and reduce corruption in democracies and corporations.
