Thanks to Panopto and ThinkTech Hawaii, we are pleased to offer video streaming of nearly all of the Aloha on Rails sessions. We will release the videos about once a week, and will announce each video here on our blog.

First up, we’re releasing the video of Chad Fowler’s Passionate Programmer talk from Aloha on Rails. I chose this talk to kick off the conference as I believe it really encapsulated the tone of the whole show.

We hope you enjoy it and look for more talks every week!
