Not really sure if it falls under a topic but I really want to be able to understand Ruby. From what I can tell it a great and powerful language that is widely used in a lot of areas, but I haven't had the time to teach myself while having a basic understanding of the language I'd like to expand it by a lot.

I learned Ruby by doing, which was a good way, but I had some great people to ask questions to. You might check out Upcase by Thoughtbot. They used to charge for the service, but all lessons are free now! They have a lot of a good RoR stuff, but if you are just starting out it might be a bit above your understand currently. Definitely recommend them when you feel comfortable with Ruby though!

I would start with the small poignant guide to Ruby: poignant.guide/book/chapter-1.html
