Well, I have heard a few things about it. Here is a ref I digged up:
Slide Presentation Summary Wow! check out how to open a file and grep for something in Ruby:
File.open('file.txt').grep /^jubjub-bird$/
Brave GNU World's Article on Ruby. Summary has multi-threading independent of OS. Has mod_ruby for Apache. Plans for Ruby to be a successor and replacement for Perl.
37 reasons I love Ruby Summary: I really dont see much in these reasons. Good luck Ruby.
The FAQ at Ruby Central Summary Now this is nice. You can serialize and restore objects. Some parts of perl are not truly serializable (sub refs and code refs).
Sunworld's "New Choices for Scripting" Summary: Lots of cool languages here
- FICL --- has java interface (FIJI) that allows one to script Java programs
- Ruby -- hmmm not too much interesting here.
Ruby on the Web Summary Lots more links.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
