Beginning Ruby

I have just started playing around in Ruby and it seems like a language that I will want to learn about more. That's why I started this blog. I will be sharing some tips, tutorials, helpful links etc. regarding Ruby and later on the Rails plug-in.
Let me make this clear: I am a complete beginner when it comes to Ruby programming.
So far I've downloaded and installed the Ruby installer from http://rubyinstaller.org, Sublime Text 2 from http://www.sublimetext.com and Gimp from http://www.gimp.org.
Ruby installer is the installer (duh) for the Ruby language. You need to install Ruby before you can run Ruby applications!
Sublime Text 2 is a free (after a while it will keep asking you to purchase the full version, but you can still use it) light-weight text editor. It supports a lot of programming languages, including Ruby and it also supports plugins and Zen coding, which is very important to some people. Zen coding is just a faster way of coding. For more information on Zen coding, check out http://code.google.com/p/zen-coding.
Gimp is a free, opensource image editor. Also check out the plug-in Gimpshop (http://gimpshop.com) which makes Gimp look and feel like Photoshop.
This is all for now.
Have fun!
