Yes, I have found the tutorials being out of date a bit of an issue (esp with Rails 1.2 to 2.x changes).

I have always like Akita’s ones, you need to select in English off course eg http://www.akitaonrails.com/2008/5/25/rolling-with-rails-2-1-the-first-full-tutorial-part-1

Recently brought the PDF of the 3rd Edition of Agile Web Dev with Rails and that has helped also. At http://www.pragprog.com/titles/rails3/agile-web-development-with-rails-third-edition

Consider also a look at the Seaside framework (http://seaside.st/), which uses the far-simpler-to-learn Smalltalk syntax, and in general has been shown to have better performance and speed of design. Many former RoR programmers are now looking at Seaside.

Good luck.

Here are some of my thoughts:
- are there any strategic alliance you can form that could use a penpal site within their strategic plan? (Military, foreign aid workers or volunteers, missionary groups, etc.) Maybe you could become their tool of choice.
- Analyze competition – identify their strengths and determine the weakness in each of their strengths. Attack those weakness to draw users away from your competitors.

oh wow i just found the most stupid bug … when a person deletes a “sent message” from his mail box the message also disappears from the recipient’s mailbox.

a known issue: If you go into your inbox it loads very slowly. This is because I’m loading in uncompressed versions of prototype and scriptaculous >.<
