Le rotaie rimbombano

Linode.com è orgoglioso di sponsorizzare il primo campionato annuale Rails Rumble!

La competizione è prevista ufficialmente per l'8 e il 9 settembre, quindi è bene riunire la propria squadra e andare sul sito per registrarsi.

[quote]Il concetto è semplice: si hanno 48 ore per progettare, sviluppare e distribuire un'applicazione web da zero. Al termine di queste 48 ore, sarete giudicati dalla comunità attraverso un sistema di valutazione tra pari in una serie di categorie (per maggiori informazioni, vedere il regolamento). Dopo circa una settimana di caos controllato, i giudizi si concludono e si calmano le acque. Vengono quindi dichiarati i vincitori e assegnati alcuni fantastici premi. Annunceremo a breve quali sono questi premi.[/quote]

    The web site strikes me as being *too* official, in the "protests too much" vein of thinking ([url=http://www.goenglish.com/ProtestTooMuch.asp]idiom ref[/url]), as if it’s not _really_ official somehow. That might scare away potential participants.

    As of right now the site is officially live and the competition is officially announced. And we’re officially hopeful that you’re as pumped up about it as we are.

    I just watched many of the screencasts (working on the rest). There are a lot of cool projects there. Impressive that they were done in 48 hours! (The guy in the Pagestackr one has a cool accent.)

    Is there a particular reason it’s restricted to Ruby on Rails? Is it just that you think it couldn’t be done in Perl? 🙂

    We did not organize the Rumble — we sponsored it. This time around they focused on ruby and what can be done with it in 48 hours.

    Rumor has it that the next Rumble may be more "startup incubator" focused and not be language restricted.
