Here's a tip. Programming languages and platforms aren't sexy

Yes they are,

Umm.. a language isn't sexy. Some languages, like French, let you act sexy.

But I don't think Ruby lets you act sexy. You may create a blog in 15 minutes, but most hotties are probably checking out the jock at the end of the bar, not checking out your web app.

Doing something really fast, and making a 15 minute video of it, is probably not the way to impress her.
