A Holiday Full of Rubyists
One of the craziest things about my holiday in China is that I've decided to try and meet like-minded web developers on the way.
First of all I met Dean Missikowski on Monday,
he freelances doing Ruby and SOLR search for investment banks in Hong Kong

The next day I arranged to meet Steve Holmes, a Development Manager and Agileista who runs Agile Hong Kong.

Then on Tuesday evening I arranged to meet up with Janakan Arulkumarasan, who went to Clare College with me,
lives in Hong Kong,
and is currently working as a "Web Entrepreneur"

Following that, on Wednesday night we had the Agile Hong Kong meetup
where I finally managed to meet Rex Cheung from RoRCraft

All in all its kind of a crazy mix of backpacking, tourism, and code.
Highlighted by the fact that I had to rewrite this whole blog in my own blogging framework, because Tumblr is blocked in China....
check out my code at http://github.com/matthewrudy/rude-blog... unless you live in China, where github is blocked!
Crazy!
