Everything on Rails

Ruby on Rails has inspired a lot of admiring imitators. In theory you can keep on using Python, Perl, PHP, Java, or C# while reaping the benefits of the Rails model. Ruby fanatics will tell you that the language’s intrisic qualities are part of the bargain, which may be true, but all this activity is not just faddishness – Rails is essentially doing evangelism for a structured style of rapid development that is unfamiliar to many people.

Since it seems that all one needs to attempts a Rails clone is a programming language and a webserver, I’m really looking forward to Javascript, Forth, Postscript, and Cobol on Rails!
