Ruby Singapore

July 6th, 2006

Excited about this phenomenal language that's so easy to use, flexibly powerful for most tasks, yet is actually fun to work with?

Then you might be interested to join singapore.rb!

As rssfwd's author Choon Keat (also a member of singapore.rb) says, "It's a young group, so be gentle :-D"!

8 of us from Singapore.rb managed to meet up at City Hall's Starbucks, with a couple of us displaying makeshift handwritten notepad signs of "RUBY SG" and "Ruby on Rails" on the coffee tables just to draw attention, a first for myself! :D

Among the ruby fans, there were an interesting bunch dealing with embedded systems, electronic payment (like point of sales), a technopreneur looking at improving workflows and customer relations of SMEs, web designers and developers.

We had a good exchange of how Ruby/Rails had helped them in their work and their hobbyist pursuits, interesting in every way.

There was also an energetic discussion RESTful paradigms for rails :)

Check us out!
