Event Description
Developer Day was born out of the realization that there's a huge amount of development talent and experience spread across the country, and there's absolutely no need to spend a lot of money to get together and learn from each other. Furthermore, so many of the venues for assembling geeks are focused on a single technology. We need less specialization right now, and more places to talk to people for whom tools are tools, but tech is king. When you want to talk to Ruby geeks, head out to RubyFringe or Ruby Hoedown. When Java is on top, catch an NFJS, or JavaOne. But where are you to go when you just want to talk to and hear from people who are putting a bunch of technologies to use solving interesting problems?
