I do have the time and am considering Code Academy in Chicago, but after more investigation I have began to wonder if RoR is really for beginners..because it borrows so much from others.

I had planned to take a year and learn it full-time starting in March, but I am having second thoughts.

thanks for the post

I think one of the strengths of Ruby and thus RoR is its kind of simple. Although I will admit the leap to 3.1 was probably more difficult than it ought to have been. I can only speak for NYC but joining the local meetup community has done wonders for my skill building. But remember, this is a ten year process =) Good luck!
