Pat Allan


Aliasespat, freelancing_god, freelancing-god
LocationAustralia, Melbourne
Company Self Employed


Pat is a freelancing Ruby web developer occasionally based in Melbourne, Australia. He is best known in the Ruby community for his Thinking Sphinx plugin. Through that, he got a bit carried away on the topic, and has also released a Ruby API for Sphinx, named Riddle, and wrote a PDF for Peepcode.

He’s also organised some of the Rails Camps (in Melbourne, London, and Maine), because they are always amazingly fun weekends, and such fun should be shared far and wide. Beyond the Ruby community, Pat’s also been involved in running a cross-discipline unconference known as Trampoline.

If you’re feeling bored, you could go read his blog, or follow him on Twitter.
