I've been trying to get to grips with Ruby on Rails for quite a while 
now, but this last week has been something of breakthrough for me. I've 
learnt a lot about Ruby (which I now really like, partly due to the 
language and partly due to it's modules like Builder and FasterCSV), and 
I now fell I "get" Rails as well.

It's definitely a "keeper" in my book, and for the foreseeable will be 
my framework of choice for web stuff. :)

My blog uses Typo (which is a RoR app), and I host it through lighttpd 
which I also love.

Cheers,
