Today we talk about our awesome times at the Rails Saas conference in Athens last week. We touched on how well the conference was organized, the great talks, and the fantastic people we both met. We felt like in the presence of stars and online friends.
We also spoke about how important it is to have activities planned outside the conference too and how the people make all the difference.
