RubyAZ.org Mtg. Tonight...

So, I drove up to PHX with my buddy Chad Woolley (geminstaller - http://geminstaller.rubyforge.org/)
  to attend the most recent Ruby Users Anonymous meeting.

Interesting - it was held at RisingTideSoftware.com's homebase - these  
guys host the main Ruby RDocs.

A couple of things I took away.

*RSpec is much better than Test::Unit - even tho it is kinda immature  
still.
*There's some really cool stuff going on with JRuby, Google for  
"monkeybars ruby".
*Not too many folks earning a living off of Rails - a few but not as  
many as I'd like to imagine.
*I need to learn how to debug with ruby-debug.
*Screencasts are Ruby's de facto documentation

*For every rVooz idea - there's a shitload of pointless RoR experiments.

Kit
