Hi all,

It's time for the last Malaysia.rb meetup of the year. We usually hold
the meetups on the third Thursday of every month, but since this month
it falls on a public holiday, I think we should move it to the
following week.

Here are the details:

Time: 27th December 2007, 8:30pm
Location: Starbucks, KL Sentral

Yup, this time we'll try it at KL Sentral!

Anybody up to give a presentation? We had a great presentation by
Janne and Arie at the last meetup on RSpec Story Runner and we look
forward to more initiatives like this for this meetup. If a full
presentation scares anyone, we can also hold Lightning Talks on
anything - your favourite ruby library, a new Rails plugin (did
anybody check out Interlock by Evan Weaver? It looks awesome!), how to
prepare your favourite snack - anything! No slides necessary. The only
rule is that it is 5 minutes max.

List of presentations:
1. Facebook Development on Ruby on Rails - Kamal Fariz
2. ??

Lightning Talks:
1. ??
2. ??
3. ??


Regards,
kamal

my co-worker at MindValley, Paul, said he will also join malaysia.rb
meet-up on this Thursday, he said he doesn't use FB too much so he
didn't check my message to him :-D

Thanks all for attending the meetup. I'll do a write up on RSB's blog
when I get the energy.

If you do write about the meetup on your own blog, do link it here.
Thanks.

What a great meeting! unfortunately I have to leave early, hope I
don't miss out too much!
Thank you all for the sharing session, a true spirit of the ruby
community, spreading the joy of programming in a language that makes
you happy! this is what makes me stick to ruby instead of jump ship to
learn python and invest my time in django :P
