WindyCityRails: September 17, 2011

August 24, 2011 – By Raymond T. Hightower | Comments Off

Ruby on Rails is the technology behind robust web ventures like Groupon, Twitter, and Hulu. WindyCityRails is Chicago’s conference for all who are passionate about Ruby on Rails. The conference will be held on Saturday, September 17, 2011 at the Westin Chicago River North located along the River at Dearborn Street.

What is the WindyCity Experience?

What can you expect at WindyCityRails? Take a look at feedback we received on two conferences held earlier in 2011: WindyCityGo (mobile) and WindyCityDB (NoSQL databases).

Why do we go to conferences?

  • Presentations. To hear from peers who are working on the cutting edge of our profession. Presentations from this year’s WindyCityGo and WindyCityDB are online.
  • Networking. To share ideas with our peers – some of the sharpest minds in the developer community. To talk to folks that we don’t see every day. To give serendipity a chance to work!
  • Fun. After all, if we’re not having fun, maybe we should go somewhere else :-)

What does the WindyCity experience mean to you? Hear more about the experience from people who have been there.

When smart people challenge each other to grow, great things happen. We look forward to seeing you at WindyCityRails!
