This thread reminds me of an article I read recently: http://rubiken.com/blog/2013/02/11/web-dev-a-crazy-world.html It's mostly a matter of having enough time to evaluate what's best for you. In the case of RoR vs Django, you will (assuming zero knowledge) need to learn a language, then a framework. That's quite a time consuming task. Personally I've opted for Django because I've used Python for years. I've written some Ruby in the past, but I not enough to make me choose RoR over Django to get stuff done. -- ./Sven
