From my posts on the Meetup event:

Hello Rubyists,

It’s almost the first Thursday of the month again. We’re always interested in having members present Ruby-related topics to the group, so if you’ve been playing with anything cool, please consider presenting! We’re pretty informal, so anything you present doesn’t have to be a “polished” keynote-style presentation; it can be as simple as plugging in your laptop and showing some code you’ve been working on.

If anyone would like to present something, please leave a comment [on the Meetup event].

Best wishes,

Ben
