TSOT hosting Ruby/Rails Project Night tonight in Toronto

Lots of action going on in the Ruby and Rails communities of late.  I haven’t been following that sector much so I don’t know if this is a resurgence or just kicking off 2008 with a bang. Regardless, in well about an hour from now (5:30 PM ET) the doors are open and it looks like, in addition to food, there are going to be some great speakers on tap:

• Yours Truly [editor's note-that would be Joey], on the lessons and challenges of Zed Shaw’s rant
• Andrew Burke on the business and technical aspects of his current Rails project
• Hampton Catlin on Ziplocal.com
• Mike Ferrier on The Score’s iPhone application

The event will take place at TSOT’s office — 151 Bloor Street West (on the south side, just east of Avenue Road), suite 1130. The doors open at 5:30 p.m., during which time we’ll serve food. Presentations start at 6-ish, with breaks in between and some time for socializing afterwards. Admission is free, but space is limited — to register, please email joey.devilla[at]tsotinc.com.

If you have a tech or social media event in Canada that you’d like me to spread the word about … let me know!

Update: I heard from the folks at TSOT and the project night was a great success!  Joey has all the deets on his Global Nerdy blog.
