Well depends on the purpose. For general tasks it's really vastly superior to most other languages.
I personally don't like some things about the syntax but that's just my personal opinion :)

Give Python a look as well. Also, never try to embed Ruby in a C/C++ application it's not designed for it.

It's trivial to embed Ruby in C/C++.

Python is a great language too. If I hadn't learned Python before learning Ruby, I guess I'd know Ruby poor.
