Our friends at Engine Yard are at it again. They've announced the information about their Hackfest this year. The best part? Everyone attending the conference gets a Solo account for the duration of the conference. We're really looking forward to seeing what you come up with this weekend!

Here are the details.

Record Breaking Registration!

Wow! Thanks to all of you we not just broke, but demolished our previous registration count. We are full to the brim this year. Thank you all for registering!

This also means registration is closed. If you somehow missed the registration period (And seriously, how could you? It was like 10 weeks long!), feel free to make an appeal to mike@mtnwestrubyconf.org.

Registration Ends Soon

Registration is going to end on Friday, March 6th. We only have a few dozen seats left, so register now to secure a seat. You don't want to miss out!

Badges? We don't need no stinkin' badges!

Are you attending MountainWest RubyConf 2009? Do you want to rub this fact into your friend's noses? Do you have some spare room on blog you want to fill? Then we have a solution for you! Grab your attendee badge and let everyone know just how awesome you really are!

MWRC speaker interviews getting rolling

I just posted the first MWRC speaker interview of 2009. David Brady and Kirk Haines answered questions about the conference and their talks on twitter, but the whole thing has been wrapped up in a post at On Ruby.

Have fun with it, and watch for more interviews to show up between now and the conference starting - then make sure you're at MWRC 2009 to catch all the action.

Speakers Announced!

We are really happy to announce the speakers for the next MountainWest RubyConf! We were overwhelmed with 4 times the number of proposals than we could accept, so we've slightly changed the format and are expanding the number of sessions from 16 to 20! You can see all the speakers here.
