I think what I like most about Ruby (from my limited knowledge) is that you can call methods on almost anything. Talk about great <em>OOP</em>! :) The <em>interactive</em> command line execution is also very useful. Can't wait to try it out. Brian,

It's not perfect, there's plenty of stuff that sucks, but it's still a heeeeeeeeell of a lot better than anything else I've used. App deployment needs some help - hand managing FCGIs, even with a cutesy thing like SwitchTower, is a pig PIA. With PHP under Apache, it doesn't exist as a problem. ;) I used to head this big php pseudo-appserver project called binarycloud, we ended up porting some of the cool stuff from it to Rails, and now all turing development is done on Rails.
