I've been a PHP developer since 1999, am currently a Zend Certified Engineer for PHP4 and PHP5 and work as a contractor for a large media company developing systems in Symfony. While Symfony is an excellent PHP framework (it takes a lot of inspiration from Rails), there are some things that make it less than perfect when compared with something like Rails. I decided to pick a new skill to learn this year as an investment in my future. Out of all the new frameworks, I decided to look at Rails because it seemed to have most of the hype (don't get me wrong, frameworks such as Django have excellent potential, but I went with the one most people were talking about).
