This seems like a nice Web applications framework, but honestly, I think it is waaaaaaaaaay to complicated. You have to have like 5 million (exaggerating) files to make a simple page that says "Hello World", which would take just one line in PHP. Since ROR is new, there aren't many prebuilt applications for it like there are for PHP. So I'll tjust stick with whatever little PHP editing I do.

it's complicated i know... but it is said that it's even better than php

i have to experience it by myself, but for now i am sticking to learn javascript

after it i'll try it

but if you're looking for something new and promising... see it... it's worthwhile

I've never heard of it, and I agree, if it takes many files just to display one simple line of text showing 'hello world' then it can't really be any good (Even in java and c++ it's only a few lines of code!).

It may show as a good programming language in the near future though, when there are many guides out and many people are learning it as a new language.

For now though, I think i'll stick with php and maybe look into this when it becomes more popular.
