Go to MerbCamp for free!
22 Sep 2008Kudos to the guys organizing MerbCamp for putting together an event that you can attend without breaking the bank. But why spend even $50 when you can get in for free?
I am sponsoring MerbCamp, but unfortunately I can’t make it there myself, and by being a sponsor I get two passes to attend MerbCamp that I won’t be able to use. So, instead of wasting them, I thought I’d offer them to anyone who wants them. So, if you want a free pass to MerbCamp, here’s what you need to do:
Enter your name and email address via this Google doc by 12:01 AM Pacific Time on Thursday, the 25th of September. On Thursday morning, I will randomly select two people who submitted their info and let them know via email how to get the passes. That’s all you have to do.
While you’re dropping your name in the hat (as it were), do feel free to also drop a suggestion in the box if you have an idea for a Rails application that would make a great Rails Kit.
It’s a pleasure to be able to sponsor MerbCamp. If you have a Ruby- or Rails-related event you’re coordinating that could use a sponsor, feel free to drop me a line.







Why make it random? You should give it to someone who makes some useful patches to Merb.
Hey there… I don’t need the pass, but an idea for a rails kit is a knowledge base… with automatic ranking of the most frequently asked questions, etc. It seems a lot of sites need the functionality and few do it well. A good starting point might help.
