This is the video of the July 2011 meeting of the DC Ruby User Club. It contains two talks:
* “Be a Good Ruby Citizen: Use and contribute code like you give a damn” by Jim Gay – Jim is a contributor to dozens of ruby projects on GitHub. He will share lessons he’s learned on how to be a valuable member of the open source community.
* “Building One File Web Apps with Sinatra” by Nathan Herald – Nathan will cover the basics of the Sinatra web micro-framework and walk us through the example of how to build an URL un-shortener.
