You may want to check out some of 7stud's other posts to see whether you
feel the same frustrations he does (and, in fact, to learn from them, since
he or others usually come up with the answers in short order).

Personally, although I have a copy of several Ruby books, I do most of my
learning here on comp.lang.ruby and by reading the dozens of Ruby-related
blogs, and haven't hit any brick walls yet.  A quick "How do I do this?"
post or even "I did this but how can I do it better?" often yields a
half-dozen answers with different solutions within a day.

There are also (weekly?) Ruby quizzes posted here, with answers the
following week.
