1) Your suggestion for the best intro book on "ruby" assumes that Ruby = Ruby on Rails. I think many might disagree -- I'd differentiate and throw in a book on Ruby the language.
2) To the point of how the choices are made -- maybe institute some sort of voting system (Winner with X votes, runner-up #1, runner-up #2). I think it gives more credibility to the site if it's a community resource and the selections are based on something other than the site-owner's opinion.
Good idea and good weekend project! Also, excellent that you and your wife can work together on stuff like this - that's a great thing.
