I’m currently sitting in Tony Hillerson’s presentation at 360 Flex: Flex and Rails with RubyAMF. It’s been a pretty Rails-rudimentary session, but there have been several useful tidbits (the Awesome Nested Set plugin looks cool, for example).

I’m glad to see promotion of Rails/Ruby as a backend for Flex apps, ’cause that’s just a no-brainer as far as I’m concerned. For some reason it doesn’t seem so obvious to the Java-background-heavy Flex community. I guess some people just really love writing verbose, mind-fucking repetitive code. Power to ‘em, I’d rather GSD.

Tony is the first presenter I’ve ever sheen whose shirt literally matches his non-plain preso slide background. That’s a level of style/detail that I think is badass (seriously).
