Softies on Rails is a popular Rails blog that looks at Ruby on Rails from the perspective of .NET developers. They've just announced that they're holding a special one-day workshop where they cover how they went from .NET to Ruby on Rails for Web development and how other .NET developers can do the same.

It's in Chicago, at the Hilton Garden Inn hotel, on Saturday, January 13, 2007, and costs $249 for a whopping 11.5 hours of discussion, presentations, lunch, beverages and snacks. Places are limited to just 20 seats so everyone can get the most value out of it, so if you want to get a ".NET to Ruby" perspective and you can get to Chicago in January, register now!
