You aren't in the wrong place. :)

Check out pine.fm/LearnToProgram/ to get an idea of the basics of
programming (coincidentally, the site uses Ruby ;) ), and later on
grab the excellent The Ruby Way, and Programming Ruby (aka Pickaxe)
books.

Welcome to Ruby. :)

Two points:

One, video takes up a lot of bandwidth, so its a good idea to
outsource video hosting (YouTube [to be handled with care, as Google
wants a perpetual, free license to use your content], blip.tv [no
opinion on that one], Vimeo [to be handled with care if you want to
use the videos commercially]).

Two, as a beginner it is risky to put up your own, internet facing
code, simply because of the security risks you can expose yourself to
without knowing. Thus, I would recommend using a content management
system, at least until you got your feet wet, and feel comfortable in
placing your own code out there.

I can heartily recommend Wordpress (http://wordpress.org) as a CMS,
and if you are just hellbent on using Ruby: Typo
(http://blog.typosphere.org/) and Radiant (http://radiantcms.org/) are
common Ruby/Rails based CMSes.

Not that I am aware. Ruby is very *NIX centric, and Mac OS X is a UNIX
flavor under the shiny exterior. And I think Flash handles the
streaming for you.

I hope that will be helpful for you, at least as a kick-start. :)
