What a way to spend a Friday night in Lodo: talking about nerd stuff at the Tattered Cover! This month's meeting was bumped to Friday night thanks to all of the snow storms in December and earlier this month. I thoroughly expected there to be only a handful in the audience, but I was pleasantly surprised--I think there are probably about 20 people here.

I gave my standard plugins talk for the first half of the meeting. Thanks to Rails 1.2 being released just yesterday, I realized too late that I'll probably have to re-work some pieces of the talk. Oh well. At least I won a book!

Fernand is now giving a talk on a plugin that he and Delynn have been working on, called ZiYa. Aside from producing really sexy flash charts and graphs, it looks like a really simple (and useful) API. If you need to produce some beautiful, interactive charts, then you should definitely check it out!
