Some of you may have participated or heard about last year’s Rails Day 2006. The contest allowed developers to design and implement a web application in a 24 hour period. In exchange for prizes and a bit of community recognition.

Although the contest was partially successful, and many interesting apps came out of it, this year’s Rails Rumble, September 7-8, 2007, organizers decided to do it differently.

Rails Rumble will allow a 48 time period for app development and deployment. The teams will be made up of 1-4 developers and there is currently a max of 50 teams. Applications will be judged by their completeness, user interface, originality, usefulness and overall.

The event includes sponsorships by Pragmatic Bookshelf, Cashboard, Active State so good prizes are expected.

If you are a rails developer, and would like to participate run over to Rails Rumble and sign up.
