REST and Frogmetrics

REST on Nov 15, 2008
Jeff Cohen, co-author of Rails for .Net Developers, will give a brief overview of REST. The presentation will be geared for those new to REST, regardless of how long you’ve been using Rails. We assume you can at least create a simple Rails app, but not much more than that. Bring your laptops and questions! Visit Meetup.com for the location and to RSVP.
