If not troll?(javier_valencia) then
Yes it is good and quite fast in working on it and in working at all
With Rails you can fight againts this opinion: `Good, Fast, Cheap: Pick any
two (you can't have all three)' - RFC-1925 p7a

I create 2 web pages for money, using Rails. Both work and will be working!

Depends on what you mean by "authoring." Rails greatly facilitates
the coding of the typical database-backed Web site, especially if you
prefer to use a form of MVC (model/view/controller) adopted for the
Web.

It is easy to install, and easy to try out, so you would do well to
spend a hour or two playing aound. You'll proably have a running
site in the first 20 minutes, so the rest of the tme can be spent
discovering if it fits your needs.

You should also consider Nitro and Wee/Nemo.

If you are simply serving up static web page content, Rails is
overkill. On the other hand, Rails is an excellent framework for
developing web applications that serve up dynamically-generated
content (usually backed up by a database). It is quickly overtaking
some of the more traditional and popular web application development
frameworks and languages (like PHP and Java). For more information,
see the Rails home page (at http://www.rubyonrails.com) and some of
the fine Rails tutorials, like the ONLamp tutorial at
http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2005/01/20/rails.html.
