Christopher Jones points out a free event that Oracle is having at its Headquarters (in Redwood Shores, CA) - "Experience Oracle, PHP & Ruby/Rails".

Oracle is running a free workshop at its Headquarters on August 25th. This is a call for developers interested in developing applications in PHP, Ruby/Rails, Java, .Net or even wanting to use Oracle's free SQL Developer tool or learn web development with Oracle's APEX product.

They'll be providing lunch and the information, you just show up and soak it all in. You can find more information about the event here (and register to reserve your spot).
