Hi folks,

I’m pleased to announce the launch of [rubyproblems.com](http://rubyproblems.com)!

While we’ve been jokingly referring to this service as “Like RubyQuiz,  
but less fun – Like PeepCode, but text-based”, we are actually trying  
to come up with a different approach to Ruby learning. Here’s the  
basic idea:

We provide freely available problems to work on, each carefully  
selected to help you learn about some essential Ruby concepts. For  
those who need a little extra help or just want to see our take on it,  
we offer affordable and detailed solution writeups written in the  
style of my book, “Ruby Best Practices”. To help make these available  
to a wider audience, we will also provide a few smaller problems each  
month (called mini-sprints), which will come with free solution  
downloads and have open access to the discussion threads.
