Laying Tracks slides

— May 24, 2007 at 17:40 PDT


I had a great time at RailsConf 2007. Lots of good stuff to see, and it was great to meet so many people I've only known online. I was a bit overwhelmed by how many people introduced themselves as readers of this blog, but I appreciated every introduction. It's great to see who I'm talking to out there.

I was particularly pleased at the reaction to my presentation. Thanks for all the nice feedback. Here's the slides from the talk: Laying Tracks. They are slightly edited for online distribution, but the live show always has something that the studio recording doesn't. Like cutlery.

I'm still planning on converting this presentation to a guide that reads better than a slide deck. I'll get around to it in my copious spare time.

    Great talk Josh, you convinced me to submit my first patch: http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/8448

    One thing I learned from this first experience: don't only test against MySQL. I know... it's obvious but well, I didn't think about that.

    Hi Josh,

    your talk at RailsConf was really great. I'd love to commit some patches but I needed someone to tell me more about the way to do it, that's what you did.

    So thank you and I hope that I will submit patch soon!
