Keynoting at Rails Summit - Latin America (Brazil!)

Posted by Mark Gardner on 2009-10-23 21:41:32 UTC

Chad opened the event on October 13th with a keynote on the "Rails Insurgency."  A link to the full one-hour video of the talk can be seen at: agaelebe.blip.tv/file/2726795/

Rich's keynote opened the second day of the event.  He spoke on MacRuby and HotCocoa.  

With 550 attendees, this is the second largest international conference for Ruby on Rails after the main RailsConf.  That is surprising considering that most of the attendees were from Brazil where most developers work for large enterprises and not technology start-ups. 

All the reports indicate this was an amazingly successful event.
