If you are simply serving up static web page content, Rails is
overkill.  On the other hand, Rails is an excellent framework for
developing web applications that serve up dynamically-generated
content (usually backed up by a database). It is quickly overtaking
some of the more traditional and popular web application development
frameworks and languages (like PHP and Java). For more information,
see the Rails home page (at http://www.rubyonrails.com) and some of
the fine Rails tutorials, like the ONLamp tutorial at
http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2005/01/20/rails.html.
