(I learned Ruby from the pick-ax book while on a ship for a week with no internet. This was in the days before Rails.)

Ruby is far simpler than java or C# - make sure you don't overcomplicate it.

Do you have some simple problems you can solve with it?

I can do some simple ruby on account of It being almost English but I'm not writing ruby code I'm writing vb code in ruby if that makes sense
