You're certainly entitled to your opinion. I've been in web development since '96 and I've used Perl, PHP, Python, and Ruby, all to great lengths: http://destiney.com/ I think Ruby is by far the best there is in the scripting language world. I know of no faster way to build a site than with Rails. In genetics research where I work, time and again I've completed entire sites in a third or half my allotted time. When I bid side projects my Ruby/Rails estimates are usually 60% that of my PHP or Python estimates (I don't do much Perl anymore). I can do this because Ruby and Rails allow me to get lots more done in less time since I simply write much less code. At this point I would never build a new site in anything but Rails if I didn't have to. -- Greg Donald destiney.com | gregdonald.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
