The Founder of Ruby on Rails Abstract For Their Keynote

Posted by John Kopanas [2] Comments 

David Heinemeier Hansson has just sent us the title and abstract of his upcoming keynote address at CUSEC 2006. I thought you guys and gals would be interested so here it is.

Title: “Ruby on Rails: The Whirlwind Tour”

Abstract:
Get 1st class tickets to tour with Ruby on Rails. A glimpse behind the headlines, a look at the fundamental shift that this Yet Another Framework is bringing to the world of web-application development. See the beautiful of domain-specific languages in full effect and learn about the holy cows we had to slaughter to enjoy the view.

I don’t know about you… but I am really looking forward to getting the opportunity to learn directly from Google and O’Reilly’s Hacker of the Year award recipient.

Pictures From CUSEC 2004 and 2005

Posted by John Kopanas 1 Comment 

If a picture is worth a million words then how many words is 756 pictures worth? Yeah yeah, I know, 756 million, it is just a figure of speech.

We have 756 pictures in total online from [CUSEC 2004](http://www.flickr.com/photos/kopanas/sets/1041664/) (Montreal) and [CUSEC 2005](http://www.flickr.com/photos/kopanas/sets/988102/) (Ottawa). If you have never been to CUSEC check out the pictures to get a feel for the atmosphere of CUSEC and for those who attended either of those CUSEC’s check out the images to reminisce about the good times we had.

I think I might just have pictures from earlier CUSEC’s as well. Who wants to see them as well?
