Day two saw the Ruby track. My talk — where I tried to talk about things different in Ruby — was followed by Yogi’s, where he talked about the syntax and things like that. This was followed by a Ruby on Rails tutorial by Avik. The turn-out for the talks was very encouraging.

Evening was spent drinking with jackol. Dublin followed by Purple Haze. (Haze played Cradle of Filth’s version of Hallowed Be Thy Name! Yay!)

Didn’t attend much of day three, except for the web services BoF. Later, Rasmus, Gopal, bluesmoon, teemus and I headed to Opus for dinner. Man, that place rocks. Totally.

Attended a couple of DB talks on day four, and mostly just hung around and met people and stuff. Of course, there was the rock show later which was pretty decent.

Swaroop has tons of pictures. Photos from all.

I’m a tired man. The Year End Party’s tomorrow, after which I’ll be a tireder [sic] man. I’m off to Bombay next weekend for some rest.

I was working late night so I woke up at 10:30 or so. Took a shower and then headed to the venue. Oh man it’s awesome to meet people — the best thing about the conference.

The Open Source at Google talk had one slide talking about the open source stuff they use. I didn’t know SSL was open source software! Haha.

All the Ruby talks are tomorrow. We’re gonna have an informal Ruby meet at Pecos or someplace in MG road after all the talks. As of now, Dibya Prakash, Yogi and I have confirmed. Please let me know if you’re coming!

Oh yeah, tag photos with fossin2005.
