Great framework
Ruby on Rails is the real deal. Take a look at the number of projects currently using the framework: http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/RealWorldUsage

If you want to try it, I'd suggest getting "Agile Web Development with Rails" by Dave Thomas and DHH, and just build a website over a weekend. Ruby is an easy language to pick up.
