Ruby OOP: Objects over Classes

The first RubyConf in India was a great success. I'm glad that I got an opportunity to speak there.

The talk I gave was on Ruby OOP: Objects over Classes. The role of objects and classes in object-oriented programming is something that I have been seriously revisiting for the past several months (having spent time in Java projects and Ruby projects in ThoughtWorks): this is after having done more than 4 years of Ruby programming overall. For me, the beauty of Ruby is that after a while, when you've gotten a decent grip on the language, it wanders your mind through thoughts about what programming is and what it should be about.

My session went decently well, I'd suppose, based on the Q & A, personal feedback I received from attendees, and the blogs and tweets out there. I'm glad that people liked my session and could appreciate the mindset I wanted to share. If you attended my talk, please do get in touch with me as I'm always looking for feedback.
