Subject: hash assignment [:x] vs ['x']

Being totally new to ruby, I just noticed that using

bob['phone']

which coming from perl is a style I'm used to, results in a separate key
than

bob[:phone]

That seems slightly weird, I had assumed the :form is just a shorthand
like %w(  ).  So -- is there anything more that I need to understand
about this distinction?
