ChangingThe Present.org Rails Overview

This lesson is one in a series from the Lone Star Ruby Conference Charity Workshop held in Austin, TX on September 6, 2007.

Presented by Bruce Tate

Bruce outlines how he came to Ruby on Rails from a Java background and what Ruby on Rails has to offer. He uses the http://changingthepresent.org/ site to demonstrate various aspects of Rails and takes questions from the audience about the technology driving the site.

Bruce Tate is the author of many Java and Ruby books and is the CTO of WellGood, LLC, the creators of Changing The Present.

Author proceeds from this video will be donated to charity.
