If one of your New Year’s resolutions was to learn Ruby on Rails, I would suggest reading Mr. Neighborly’s Humble Little Ruby Book. It is a great online introduction to the Ruby programming language and will definitely give you a kickstart while learning the Rails framework. I know that learning Ruby on Rails has completely changed my professional profile; there is so much demand for RoR Â developers that it has given me a heightened sense of confidence, knowing that I can go after jobs that actually excite me. There are so many resources on the Web for learning Ruby on Rails than any programmer with even a little bit of extra time should learn this technology, which is so rapidly being adopted now.
