OMGPOP is giving away 2 tickets (valued at $199 each, no strings attached) to GoRuCo. This event is SOLD OUT, so this might be the only way left to attend this event. Why is OMGPOP giving two tickets away? As you may have read through the rest of our engineering blog, our entire API is written in Ruby. We love what Ruby does for us, and want to return the favor to the community.
If you are interested in scoring a free ticket, send an e-mail to chris@omgpop.com with the subject “GoRuCo Ticket” with a brief synopsis of yourself (or your website), and the winners will be announced no later than Thursday evening.
Good luck!
Update: We had a whole bunch of entries, but congratulations to our two winners —
- Cedric Howe, Kickstarter
- Serena Wales, Purpose
Thanks to everyone for expressing interest, next year we’ll have to give out more!
