It's that time again, and this month we're joining forces with the Adobe Users group to bring you a talk on "Flex, Rails, and RubyAMF" with Adogo's Brian LeGros and Orug's Jake Swanner. The meeting will be Thursday, September 10th, 7 PM at Devry (4000 Millenia Blvd, Orlando, FL 32839, USA) room #114.
For this presentation Brian and Jake be showing a simple Flex application built to integrate with a Rails service using data from Yelp! They'll show how easy it is to integrate Flex with Rails via XML, JSON, and AMF with out the need for anything fancy. The AMF integration is being provided by RubyAMF, which is a plug-in for Rails, and an easy way to offer the AMF support. They'll also be giving a brief introduction to the Flex framework, so newcomers are welcome.
Also wanted to mention that Rubyconf tickets go on sale next Friday. Rubyconf is being held November 19-21 at the San Francisco Airport. http://www.rubyconf.org
Lastly, if you're interested in ever producing large events here in Orlando, Mark Baratelli (who is organizing the Orlando Improv Festival) decided to put together a panel discussion on the topic. Mark was nice enough to invite me to be on the panel, and I'm quite honored to be speaking next to other larger community leaders. http://bit.ly/SKegz
