Personally I recommend to buy the hardcopy version of the pickaxe.

Even after you finished it, the reference can be very nice. Lots of fun 
bits to discover.


However, to "learn" ruby, I advise you to start with small ruby scripts 
and work on that to bigger projects. There really is no alternative IMHO 
and also no better way in ruby, than just start writing ruby scripts. 
The more ruby you use, the better you become. I found ruby to go very 
close to my thinking.
