Hi Again Everyone, First my apologies to the group on not explaining what Rails Rumble was. Jeremy posted some details above. Here are some more from the website (http://railsrumble.com/):
[About the Contest] The Rails Rumble is a 48 hour web application development competition. As a contestant, you get one weekend to design, develop, and deploy the best web property that you can.. [blah] [blah] [blah] The build portion of this years event took place over the weekend of October 18th and 19th. Voting is now in progress. Winning teams will not only receive kudos from the Ruby on Rails community, they'll also win a number of incredible prizes, supplied by our event sponsors. By participating as a voter, you may also qualify to win a $20 USD Amazon gift voucher (5 winners selected randomly). The reason it's getting attention is that a few of the applications from the 2007 contest actually became startup businesses that have lasted since last year. Here's an article describing the 2008 contest from last week's TechCrunch: http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/10/23/131-web-apps-launched-this-past-weekend-vote-for-the-best/ >From the TechCrunch article: "Around five apps out of 90 total from the 2007 competition are still around today, including last year’s winner Tasty Planner (http:// tastyplanner.com/)." I'd not heard about Django Dash (though -- I promise -- I Googled it, just apparently not well enough). Here are the results of that: http://www.djangodash.com/results/ James, do you know if this is planned for next year?
