Rails

I've looked at Ruby a few times, and it seems interesting. But running across Rails makes me a bit more interested. In particular, this 10 minute demo is pretty compelling.

The site states that Basecamp was created in 2 months in around 4 thousand lines of code by a single programmer using Rails. That's a pretty strong testament.

I don't see myself switching away from my current web application solution (which I'll talk more about in the future), but always good to be aware of other options. The other thing that occurs to me is many of the ideas pioneered by WebObjects/EOF are proliferating across platforms.
