Silicon Valley Rails Meetup, Mar 2009 - Slides & Pics

I presented at Silicon Valley Rails Meetup href="http://blogs.sun.com/arungupta/entry/glassfish_at_silicon_valley_rails">yesterday.
The official attendance says 79 and the kitchen area (for the
presentation) was indeed packed!



The
demo gods were hovering very much around and required me to reboot the
machine - live during the presentation. Have you ever rebooted Mac
because of a slow performance, smack in the middle of a demo ? ;-)



Here is a quote from the meetup:



The big win with
glassfish is that it gives you the same environment in deployment and
development.



The slides are available href="http://blogs.sun.com/arungupta/resource/confs/ruby-meetup-72-mar2009.pdf">here.
