Rails Day 2006

June 13th, 2006

Rails Day 2006 is coming up! I’ve teamed up with Mark Priestap and Kenny Parnell on a very cool top-secret project. I’m really looking forward to working with Mark and Kenny. They’re both extremely talented, and I’m excited to be on their team!

What is this Rails Day hubbub? Rails Day is a contest – basically you have 24 hours to complete an entire application in Ruby on Rails from start to finish. According to the rules, you can sketch things out on paper, but you’re not allowed to do any prep work on the computer. All the work must be done in the 24-hour period. Pretty tight timeframe!

Prepare the coffee! We’ll be at it from midnight on Friday night (June 16) until midnight on Saturday night (June 17). To see what we’re up against, check out the Rails Day Rules.

Anybody else out there competing in Rails Day?

    Hey Ryan, Just wanted to wish you, Kenny and Mark all the best. Can't wait to see what you guys come up with, as well as the other contestants. I know you guys will do well though. Peace and God Bless!

    Thanks Yannick! I think you'll be excited about our project once the veil of secrecy is lifted ;-)
