I see Ruby and Rails perticualy as ideal tool for building company Intranets. Where the problem is that you usualy do not have enough employes and learning another language, which is different enough, is not productive. It was stated on a lot of places that Ruby and Rails is easy to learn. New employes tend to integrate into existing projects faster. Not to mention productivity. I also see Ruby as a language which might finaly replace Basic as scripting language for all kind of complex applications. Imagine Ruby and gems embaded into OpenOffice. by TheR -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
