Ruby is a good offer. (Score 1)

Having in mind how versatile (albeit not necessarily the best performing in terms of speed) is the Rails web framework, and the absolute ease of use of Ruby (and Rails), I will recommend it any day. It has its drawbacks, but then again, so does every framework/language. Being more concrete, I will choose Ruby/Rails above Java/WhateverWebFramework every time. :-) Good luck with your training!
