Hi, I'm a new programmer and I want to make a social network like facebook or orkut.
I only know the basics of C and a bit of Objective-C (OOP). I know nothing about web programming. My question is what should I use, ruby on rails or python with django? I know it is a ruby on rails group, so I know I have to expect the good points on rails, but since I don't know any of the 2 languages, and neither anything on web programming, I'd like your opinion why rails is better. Also where should I start learning how to make my social network with ruby on rails? Any particular book, opencoursewares, or tutorials I could use? I downloaded a book, "RailsSpace - Building a Social Networking Website with Ruby on Rails", but don't know if it is good, and also it requires some knowledge of HTML, which I don't have.
