erubycon, the conference that answers the question: is Ruby ready for  
the enterprise? Many of you out there have stood back and watched as  
Ruby and Ruby on Rails have gained popularity. Many of you have had the  
same questions:

```
* Can I use it for real applications?
* Can I integrate it with my current systems?
* Will it scale?

```

We have gathered an exceptional group of speakers to come and share  
their experiences with Ruby in Enterprise organizations. These speakers  
will answer these questions and more. The speakers have had extensive  
experience and success in many environments such as Java and .NET. They  
have also found tremendous success and enjoyment with Ruby.

```
* Bruce Tate, international speaker and best selling author of nine

```

titles including Better, Faster, Lighter Java, and Bitter Java has  
recently written the popular From Java to Ruby: Things Every Manager  
should Know will give us an overview of how he has helped organizations  
accelerate their development and increase effectiveness thanks to the  
Ruby language.

realize that you really can use a nintendo to get your point across at  
a conference talk.

Ruby and Ruby on Rails in large organizations.

erubycon takes place Feburary 9, 10, and 11 in Columbus Ohio. Tickets
