[Omaha.pm] [Fwd: O'Reilly Gives Early Access to Cutting-Edge Technology]

[Jay Hannah]

O'Reilly sent us those 2 books (yay!) so I owe them a few plugs to the mailing list. Here's one for you. :)

Anyone played w/ Ruby? Ruby on Rails? Any thoughts? Randal passingly refers to his stuff as Perl on Planks:

Hello,

Can you please let your members know about the following news?

O'Reilly's Safari Books Online has just announced a new service called
Rough Cuts that gives you early access to content on cutting-edge
technologies months before it's published. Rough Cuts allows you to
purchase work-in-progress manuscripts of selected titles. You'll even
have the chance to shape the final product by sending feedback to the
author and editors. The beta version just debuted with four
works-in-progress covering Ajax, Ruby, and Flickr. 
For more information, go to:
