Ruby Ireland Meetup

I was in ruby Ireland last night ( good turn up btw) and it was great to see Paul Campbell talking about Couch Db, a non relational DB in their own words

"Apache CouchDB is a distributed, fault-tolerant and schema-free
document-oriented database accessible via a RESTful HTTP/JSON API. Among other
features, it provides robust, incremental replication with bi-directional
conflict detection and resolution, and is queryable and indexable using a
table-oriented view engine with JavaScript acting as the default view definition
language."

Anna showed some interesting rake tasks and i did a short intro to jQuery (slides here) hopefully someone found it interesting.

This Saturday the 13Th is the open coffee meeting in the New York Grind that will include the talk about trying to come up with something similar to alt.net Ireland. as discussed in previous post

And the universe didnt disapear (aparently) thumbs up.

jQuery ExtJS talk

I m doing a lighting talk about jQuery and ExtJs (maybe mention GWT) in the next Ruby Ireland on the 9th of September link

I ll add a link to the slides as soon as i finish them, any suggestions very welcome.
so far i m doing a quick intro, some of the features, stuff i found useful or interesting or use with code samples and finally some links. For jQuery I m touching on ui.jquery and themeroller and the event observer implementation link

For ext again intro and show some code and then maybe touch on EXT (GWT implementation of EXT Js) just started to have a look at this but it does seem very promising

Cheers
