Ruby Manor

Ruby Manor is one of those alternative conferences. It's not run for a profit, and costs just £8 for a ticket (you pay just enough to cover the cost of the room and equipment). You even get a free beer afterwards in the local boozer (and it's at least £3 a pint in London these days). Due to the unique way that Ruby Manor is funded (actually, that's nothing to do with it) you can even check the bar bill.

There were some great talks again this year, and it's far and away my favourite date on the conference calendar. Congratulations to Murray, James and Kalv on organising such a runaway success.

I spent most of the day typing frantically, but I didn't manage to capture everything. The photos that are littered through the following articles are all thanks to @glenngillen from Rubypond, who was sat next to me snapping away for most of the day.

So, in alphabetical order, here are my notes from every talk at Ruby Manor 2 (also known as "Ruby Manor Harder"). Each talk gets a page of it's own this year, mainly to help you see the wood for the trees. You can also find a couple of articles covering Ruby Manor 2008 at the bottom of the list.

P.S. If you're one of the speakers and spot a mistake, or want me to change anything, just get in touch on Twitter and I'll sort it out pronto.

I love feedback and questions — please get in touch on Twitter or leave a comment.
