hey what is ruby? seems like it is all over but not sure what it is…......can you explain?

Just wanted to tell you about the Pearson Education User Group Program, as I noticed RubyJax wasn’t signed up yet to take advantage of so many great support opportunities and incentives!

The Pearson Education User Group program provides qualified UGs with product news, discounted prices on products, free review copies in exchange for reviews, marketing materials, and promotional giveaways. Housed on www.InformIT.com/usergroups, the program represents Pearson Education imprints and well-known technology brands of Addison-Wesley Professional, Cisco Press, Exam Cram, IBM Press, Prentice Hall, Que Publishing, and Sams Publishing.

Get access to feature titles, like:

-The Rails Way http://www.informit.com/store/product.aspx?isbn=0321445619 -Sams Teach Yourself Ruby in 21 Days http://www.informit.com/store/product.aspx?isbn=0672322528 -RailsSpace: Building a Social Networking Website with Ruby on Rails http://www.informit.com/store/product.aspx?isbn=0321480791

The qualifications for the new Pearson Education User Group Program consist of: *Active membership of 10 or more people *A valid and active website for shared information *Regular online or face-to-face meetings

User groups are typically volunteer, not-for-profit organizations, or special interest groups focused on one of our core topic areas. Companies and colleges are not included in the Pearson Education User Group Program. While we appreciate outside interest in our User Group Program, we respectively request that only leaders of legitimate Pearson Education User Groups apply.

Please register your group at www.informit.com/usergroups and once we have your user group’s information and verify that it meets the requirements, you will get further information.

If you have any questions, or need additional information, please let us know.

Thank you!
