I do not know a site but I do know a book which is excellent:
http://www.amazon.com/Design-Patterns-Ruby-Addison-Wesley-Professional/dp/0321490452/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1215019949&sr=1-1
Hope this helps.

I have to say, I found that book pretty lacking. It the worst design
patterns book I ever read.
I would call it ‘marginally passable’.

Russ Nelson wrote a great book, I reviewed it here:

and interviewed him about it here:

enjoy.

At least the last three are fairly trivial in ruby - I suggest just
trying to implement them yourself to get a handle on them. Ask the
list for help.

Well … there’s no way it could be worse than the Head First one. :slight_smile:

Seriously, though, I liked Russ Nelson’s book. I don’t know if it’s
suitable for a beginner, though.
