Rapid *web application* development would be more accurate. Also, 
whether it's "rapid" or not is subjective - it's definitely easy to get 
started with, maybe easier to develop in compared to some of the other 
alternatives.

That's just a careless and inaccurate answer. Yes, Rails is a "hot" 
technology right now, but how much money you make is directly 
proportional to how much value you create to your employer/client/end 
user. Rails is just a tool, perhaps a very good tool - but you don't 
make any money out of it unless you know how to use it properly.

When neither of your answers are very helpful (not to mention inaccurate 
and misleading), perhaps you should refrain from doing so.


Vamsee.
