How I Stay Up to Date on Rails

For last night's UW Advanced Rails last class I put together my short list for staying up to date with Ruby, Rails, and the Web Development community. Here's the list:

• Ruby Weekly, HTML 5 Weekly, and Peter Cooper's other great e-newsletters
• Ruby 5 podcast. Short, and perfect for commuting.
• Ruby Rogues - a longer form podcast that has ruby rock-stars on it
• Prismatic - something about their filtering / aggregation algorithm is the best. Friend me there to get started: Ivan Storck on Prismatic
• Seattle.rb - The US's oldest Ruby group meets every week and has presentations 1x a month. Great networking and code help.
• Books - read more books, and talk about them with your peers!
  • Rebuilding Rails
  • POODR
  • Objects on Rails
