Ruby is a new interpreted Programming language that gained alot of popularity during the last few years. It supports OOP, multithreading (aka multi-tasking) and it is known as Programmer’s Best Friend.
A group of videos for comparing Ruby on Rails (RoR) with Java, PHP and .NET were made by a couple of funny guys IMO who really tend to talk about advantages of ruby and disadvantages of other programming languages.
In this page you will find those videos, i recommend you to have a look to see what Ruby on Rails has to offer. But dont really concentrate on the disadvantages of the other programming languages because you can always do whatever task the language is created for using different implementation methods regardless of what the programming language it’s self provides you with.
I will leave you with the videos
