Ruby on Rails is actually really easy to install on Dreamhost
(assuming UNIX experience), even if their wiki page makes it seem very
hard... http://wiki.dreamhost.com/index.php/Rails

You'll need "shell" access (really SSH) to your DH account, which you
can check in the Control Panel > Users > Manage Users.

Once you have shell access, open up a shell.  PC users have some
unique steps to take, but Mac users can go into
Applications > Utilities > Terminal

>From the command prompt, type...
ssh -v [EMAIL PROTECTED]

And log in using your FTP password, not your control panel one.

Now you are securely logged into your DH server.

Type this line, changing example.com to your domain...
rails rails.example.com

Change the public directory permissions...
chmod 755 rails.example.com/public

Now go back into your DH control panel and setup a new sub-domain for
rails.example.com, making sure you check the FastCGI box and using the
rails.example.com/public folder.

That is basically it - just point your browser here...
http://rails.example.com

Now the fun begins!  Thanks Markus and Josh for the suggestions.
Looks like VlogMap 3.0 will be made w/ Rails.
