More Upcoming Events

RailsConf 2008

I was very excited to have my talk selected for RailsConf. I’ll be presenting Advanced Active Record Techniques: Best Practice Refactoring – I hope to see you there.

Tammer will be presenting BDD With Shoulda at ScotlandOnRails on April 4th-5th.

And as we previously mentioned, he’ll also be presenting on Shoulda at the MountainWest RubyConf on March 28th and 29th.

acts_as_conference was a lot of fun. It was great to meet some of you, and get to know others a bit better. Hopefully we can (re)connect at these upcoming events.

thoughtbot is hiring

We are hiring web developers and web designers in both Boston and New York, NY.

What are we up to?

We built Shoulda, an eclectic set of additions to Test::Unit; Paperclip to manage uploaded files without hassle; Jester, a REST/ActiveResource client library written in Javascript, and Squirrel, an enhancement for ActiveRecord's find syntax; — amongst some other projects.


Chad (President) and Jon (CTO) co-authored a technical book titled Pro Active Record: Databases with Ruby and Rails, which explores the ins and outs of the ActiveRecord ruby library. You can buy it today at Amazon.com.
