Just a side-note here. I really STRONGLY recommend that you don't jump into an "easy" admin tool like this until you have worked out the very basic way that Rails works. These toolkits introduce a second level of abstraction over Rails, and while they can jump-start a site and give you 90% of what you need right out of the box, they also keep you from learning how the system works, which will rear up and bite you later. Further, they can often make that last 10% nearly impossible to attain, and complicate the process of learning even more.

Just my two pfennigs here.
