Satish Talim is running a free online Ruby programming course that is a great companion to our own free online course in Ruby on Rails for folks who are serious about learning Ruby. More than 3,000 people have participated since the first offering in the fall of 2006.

Unlike our course, which is self-paced and open to join at any time, Satish’s course runs on specific dates to encourage discussions among the students. The next offering starts May 6, so sign up now if you’re interested.

Satish also recently published an interview with me on the RubyLearning blog.
