RailsConf Europe 2006: Start up

Thursday, September 14th, 2006

At RailsConf Europe 2006. Good turn out and location.

David’s keynote was very technical. He mentioned a revamping of the views (codenamed simply helpful, currently a plugin) and how ActiveResource probably won’t be in Rails 2.0.

Kathy Sierra’s talk was really good. All about passion and emotion in our products. Talk to the brain, not the mind i.e. go for the caveman in all of us rather than our abstracted logical sides. To a degree of course.
