Wow.

I can only hope that he’s thinking what I’m thinking.

I’ll let you know what I’m thinking when I’m sure I know what that is. But, I’ll let you in on something - It’ll be huge.

This week, I attended two programming fan sessions.

The first was for the London Ruby Users Group on Wednesday.

Presenting was Tiest Vilee’s summary of the recent RubyConf in October. Having not used Ruby at all, a lot of it was over my head, but what I did get out of it was that a load of very cool, interesting people are into it.

And with that, I purchased Agile Web Development with Rails (30% off, woohoo) at the London Perl Workshop today, probably to the chagrin of a lot of people there because they don’t believe in web frameworks, apparently.
