Real world experience needed

[celldee]

I am in the process of retraining myself in Ruby. I have books, a Mac
(with Textmate), Linux and Windows boxes, read online articles and
invent little coding exercises for myself. None of that is a
substitute for real world experience.

Is there anybody who would be willing to engage me in a sort of
internship whereby you give me a smallish Ruby project to do and I
complete it purely for the experience?

I'm physically located in the UK, but the 'Net has a long reach. ;-)
Please contact me off list if you can help.

Sorry, if this is not the correct forum for this sort of thing.

Get thee to the Ruby Quiz (http://rubyquiz.com/). Lots of interesting
projects
of all levels with a bevy of solutions to compare/learn from

Cheers

Maybe YOU don't use metric, but perhaps that's why you haven't
noticed that all food products are labeled with English and Metric
system measurements...?

Besides, metric is part of the SI standard, and thus i18n safe. >
