I have translated the talk I gave last week at Agila Sverige to English, it’s available here.

I gave a dinner talk yesterday at the Agila Sverige conference which was fairly rantish about the state of the agile world. The text of the talk is available here (in swedish).

The videos from Smidig 2008 are up. This is mine (in Swedish):

I am happy to say that I will give one of the lightning talks at Smidig 2008. My presentation is about optimizing the whole product chain, from concept to cash, and stop focusing on projects as they fragment the organization and cause local optimization.

Last years conference was great and inspired us here in Stockholm to do our own version in the form of Agila Sverige. I am really looking forward to going back to Oslo.

I will do a presentation on ‘Successfully Using Test Driven Development’ at .NetAkademin Tuesday September 16th. This talk will cover stuff like BDD, outside-in but also how the test-driven approach is used on the project as a whole.

To match my .Net experience, we will touch on frameworks and tools for .Net, but focus on the ideas and philosophies behind them, making it a very platform independent presentation.

The event is first and foremost for clients and members of .NetAkademin, but any seat not taken by them is available to the public.

I just found out that the talk I gave at Smidig 2007 is available online. If you think there is something wrong with the sound, it is in swedish.

I came back last night after two great days of conferencing at Smidig2007 in Oslo, Norway. The mornings where all lightning talks and the afternoons where reserved for open space discussions. I gave a lighnting talk on the experiences we have had at WeMind trying to implement a lean enterprise, and I initiated two open space sessions, one on the GUI artists role in an agile process and the other on what makes different languages have so different communities and cultures. I will expand on those in later posts.

I spent last evening at an Andy Hunt seminar organized by Valtech Sweden. Andy delivered a very good presentation on “How hard can it be” handling the topic of complexity and how we as developers often make our jobs harder than they are. Highly recommended.

I just got an email saying that my lightning talk proposal for Smidig2007 was accepted. I will speak about the experiences we have had at WeMind when trying to run a lean enterprise.

I am really looking forward to this conference, it is all lightning talks and open space.

I will be speaking on the Rails Recipes Meetup here in Stockholm tomorrow. My topic will be on recipe 28 in Chads excellent book, how you can use with_scope to DRY your code.

Whilst I have looked quite deeply into the subject - it is quite small actually - there is one thing I have yet to find out. Chad mentions that you can use wrap your actions with scoping using a before_filter.
