Unless you already know Ruby then I wouldn't bother learning it. I looked at Ruby on Rails and Python with Django last year. Python made more sense to me and I know a couple of the guys that created Django so I took the time to learn Python, then started using Django. I'd consider myself proficient with Django now but I still find myself doing almost everything in CakePHP.
Rails and Django are both buzzwords. Nothing more. I feel like I wasted 6 months immersing myself in Python. I'd suggest using PHP with CakePHP or Code Igniter. You'll get most of the benefits of another language/framework and you won't need to learn another language (assuming you already know PHP).
