Ruby download

I believe i downloaded the latest version of ruby and got the line: ==> Summary ???? /usr/local/Cellar/ruby/2.1.2: 929 files, 20M

Question: when I type in the command line. ruby -v I get ruby 1.8.7 (2012-02-08 patchlevel 358) [universal-darwin12.0] Why is it still showing me the old version?

(Also when following along with the treehouse video, I just got the following lines) $rbenv install 2.0.0-p353 -bash: rbenv: command not found

I think I have I have already downloaded ruby via homebrew but it is not showing as the latest version. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Just type in your console: 

rbenv global 2.0.0-p353

Then make sure to revisit this
