[ANN] Boston Ruby Meetup

kellan

4/5/2005 7:41:00 PM

Hi all,

I'm trying to get a regular Boston Ruby meetup going, maybe as the
first step towards getting a more formal users group happening in
Boston. Meetup has scheduled the first meeting for next Thursday. (2nd
Thursday of the month)

http://ruby.meet...

Haven't chosen a location yet, as I'd like to get a sense from folks
interested where they are in the city. (I'm out in JP, so my default
choices probably won't work well for most people)

I'm a newcomer to Ruby, and newly returned to Boston, and excited about
both of them. I'm currently doing some Rails consulting for Odeo.com
to get myself started.

If you're interested, sign up for the meetup. If you've got thoughts
on a location post to the discussion board, send me an email, or track
me down on freenode. (nick: kellan) I'll probably pick a location this
Friday.

Are they any rubyists in the Houston area interested in getting together?

Depending on the day/time (in the process of moving), I might be
interested. Did you have any particular content/direction in mind for
the meeting?

I was hoping for a meet-and-greet unless someone has something
interesting to show off, like beers after work. Not having been to a
Ruby meetup before, I just wanted to get the ball rolling rather than
run things.

That makes sense. I notice that you have a Rice email address. Are
you a student there? If so, what are you studying? I'm actually just
"across the street" at Baylor College of Medicine, as a graduate
student in their SCBMB (Structural and Computational Biology and
Molecular Biophysics) program.

binkley@ALUMNI.rice.edu. :D

I graduated in '91 in music/physics. I live in midtown and work out
near 290/8 so I'm willing to drive all over the place for a once-a-month
sort of get together.

It might even be possible to host on Rice campus (I have friends in the
CS faculty).

Sorry, my quick glance just saw the rice.edu, not the preceeding "alumni" :).

I'm going to be extremely busy for about the next 2 weeks, as we are
in the process of moving out of our apartment and into a house, but
after that I should have some time to do something. Lets see who else
we can find in the Houston area who is interested in the mean time.

Replying to the overwhelming market demand (well, it's a small market,
you know?), I have a blog entry for Rubyists in Houston. If you're
interested, please drop a line in the comments so I can build an email list.

I was a grad student there from '97 to '01 :)
