Come to Rubi-Con in Detroit, March 28-30

Posted by timothy on from the flee-to-windsor dept.

Jason Scott writes "The 5th annual Rubi-Con hacker conference is about to begin just outside of Detroit, Michigan. From the 28th to the 30th of March, there'll be talks, movies, and general tomfoolery. Last year had 600 attendees and we expect a ton more this year. If you've never been to a hacker conference before, this is an easy place to start. Check out the schedule, speakers and fun at the Rubi-con website."

    Rubi-con is much fun. Last year, firecrackers were shot at a presenter, stairwells were douced with fire extenguishers, a jacuzzi was soaped, and the rubi-con web site defaced with a 10 minute star wars style flash animation.

    On the more normal side, there were tons of good speakers, lots of alcohol, and excellent looking geek chicks.

    Oh, if the site buckles under slashdot, Jason Scott put up a mirror here - http://www.cow.net/rubicon/decaffeinated/index.htm l
