Red (and Rebol) are fantastic but unfortunately the learning curve is very steep for people that don't know it. I spent a month reading everything on the internet about Rebol, then Red was obvious but before that it's really hard to get into that world. IMHO Red should have something like a definitive book covering all aspects in one place (like [0]) because it has a vast array powerful features (URI, money, time literals, parse and other dialects) etc. Without concise but a complete guide the language appears to be just a weird "let's use [ ] instead of { }" construct.
