Building Real Time Systems with Ruby and MongoDB 3.88 http://spkr8.com/t/6945

Description:

Sure, all the cool kids are using Node for their real time projects. Why should they have all the fun? Learn event-based programming, ruby style. Now with more (Ruby 1.9) Fiber! By the end of this talk you'll learn a bit about MongoDB and a lot about asynchronous programming in Ruby using Eventmachine. We'll build a simple event-driven MongoDB-back ruby network service and have it flinging bits faster than the time it takes to read Javascript: The Good Parts.

Darn good talk.

Very interesting topic! Mongo and EM are timely topics for sure. The YouTube videos were surprisingly effective at helping me remember that point (order vs. chaos). The game was neat, but I think it may have been a distraction. Thanks for the talk!
