I realized the first line of my post was pretty evil.  *Don't* look at
the slashdot (200+k lines of perl).  What i suggested to a friend who
recently asked the same thing is to pull up tags like "rails python" in
del.icious, furl and digg, see what other people like.  That's a pretty
good way to measure buzz, actually.  (My friend chose PHP, even tho i
told him he'd have unmaintainable, easily defaced code.)
