#learning ruby on rails

I have just started exploring Ruby on Rails. I took introduction to C, VB and couple of other languages during my college but never got a chance to implement any of the programming after I passed those classes. I wanted to start programming, and one of my main reasons was to develop thinking process. To challenge my brain to think differently and improve logic, which I thought would be great to do with programming. Ruby on Rails is a new generation language and lots of materials and support groups are available for it so I decided to start with that. I started reviewing  Michael Hartl’s Rails Tutorial (excellent & free). I also started reviewing Apress' Beginning Ruby - From Novice to Professional by Peter Cooper. This book also looks very good so far. I was talking to Divya Mistry last night about programming and what I am doing and my road-map. This morning he forwarded me a link to a great article by Jimmy Li - Learning to Code: The Roadmap I Wish I Had Been Given. Excellent article and shows a novice programmer, like me, how one should start to become a web developer. It covers great material for you to get started, update skills for few months, and till you get comfortable with coding and can start learning from your own programs. I think now I have good starting point and cannot wait for some programming fun to begin!
