Amen! How soon we forget the difficulty of starting out in a new field :-) Right now we've got three main resources that help newbs learn Rails for free: the rubyonrails mailing list (bulgeoning now, perhaps past it's usefulness), http://railsforum.com (where 97% of the good answers are by Ryan Bates), and RailsCasts (created by Ryan Bates). There used to be Rails Weenie, which worked almost exactly in the question/answer format you're describing, but it seems to have gone the way of the wooly mammoth. So I think you're on to something but we need to be careful not to just create another resource. We web developers tend to think that any problem can be solved with a website :-) ::Jack Danger --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.
