Hi guys, Iain here!

I've posted some extra information about my talk on Domain Driven Design on my blog.

Furthermore, if you want to talk at one of the next Rotterdam.rb meetings, be sure to mail Stefan or me. Please provide what it's about and how long it takes, so we can schedule it.

Ideas for a presentation can be some awesome library or tool you found and love, or some project you are working on to get people to collaborate with you. Or just to practice your presentation skills. I forced myself to learn something about Domain Driven Design by giving the presentation for instance.

Anyhow, hope to see you all soon!

Hi geeks! ;) Thanks for attending yesterday, the quality of the talks and discussions were really epic! And thanks again to Finalist for the location/beer and pizza!

@iain_nl on Domain Driven Design:

@svdgraaf on CouchDB:

What's up fellow hacker friends? It's been a while since the last 010 Ruby heroes meetup. Last month the guys from DenHaag.rb organised a really awesome meetup at the beach, and I have to say I can barely wait for the next one ;) Meanwhile, let's get together for some lightning talks in Rotterdam again on monday, July 12. Our good friends at Finalist IT Group offered to be our host again, so kudos to Ewout and Okke!

There will be two lightning talks this evening:

• Iain Hecker (@iain_nl) on Domain Driven Design
• Sander van de Graaf (@svdgraaf) on Advanced CouchDB (querying, map/reduce, fulltext search, CouchApps and replication)

Both talks are pretty language agnostic, so be sure to bring your non-Ruby geek friends too!

We meet at around 18:00, the talks will start at 19:00. You can find Finalist IT Group at the 4th floor of Het Groot Handelsgebouw (Stationsplein 45, main entrance / entrance A).

Ciao!

Just a quick reminder, our next meetup/beernight is this monday (April 12). We meet around 19:00 at Break Away cafe (see map for details, they have delicious burgers!).

See you all at the next meeting on April 12!

Oh hai! So March 8th we'll have our second Rotterdam.rb meetup and this time it will not only be a beer night but we'll also have 2 speakers:

• Javier (@monsieur_rock) will give a little talk on SproutCore and its integration to Rails/Sinatra.
• Iain (@iain_nl) will give an introduction to the awesomeness that Rails 3 will bring us.

This meetup will be hosted by Finalist IT Group. Go check them out at http://www.finalist.com! Finalist IT Group is situated in 'Het Groot Handelsgebouw', practically next to Rotterdam Central Station. Enter 'Het Groot Handelsgebouw' at entrance A (the main entrance), take the elevator to the 4th floor and look around for a window with a big F-logo on it.

See ya on March 8th at around 19:00!
