Michael and I are at RailsConf this week and joined a panel with our podcasting and screencasting colleagues in the Rails community. See our combined slides for some great tidbits and behind-the-scenes information.

Mike Clark, primary author of the new Pragmatic Programmers book Advanced Rails Recipes, will be holding a book signing meet-and-greet at RailsConf 2008 in Portland OR, this Friday. It will be at the Powell’s Books booth during the 12:30 lunch break.

Both Michael and I contributed recipes to the book and one or both of us plan on being at the signing for a little while. Come on by if you are at the conference and say hello!

Besides the birds-of-a-feather (BOF) meetup at RailsConf 2008 that Michael recently blogged about, we will now also be doing a panel about podcasting and screencasting with our podcasting colleagues: Geoffrey Grosenbach of the Ruby on Rails podcast, Ryan Bates of Railscasts, and Gregg Pollack of RailsEnvy.

This talk will be at 4:25pm on Friday, May 30th. We’ll be talking about the nuts and bolts of podcasting and screencasting and getting things warmed up for the BOF general discussion. Come join us if you are in Portland for RailsConf 2008!
