Last year I used RoR when I was working on this website during my trainig course :
http://www.wordans.ca/That's pretty cool, but I think it needs a long time to really know RoR. And when you create an empty project, it already contains more than 10 or 20 files due in particular to the MVC concept (but if you compare to Pylons or Django with python that's really big). Anyway, that's cool, I understand why RoR has so much fans

I don't really know what the difference between Ruby/Ruby on Rails is, is Ruby on Rails essentially a web-version of Ruby?
Ruby is the programming language, Ruby on Rails is the framework for web programming. RoR is the ruby "killer app"
