David Cloutman pointed to Craiglist’s job ads as an indicator of programming language popularity. Here’s the hit counts for “web design jobs” and “internet engineering jobs” in the Bay Area:

	PHP	Java	Ruby	Python	PERL
internet engineering jobs	167	246	85	98	109
web design jobs	110	71	22	19	31

Cloutman has a few ideas for what the numbers mean, but I’m just entertained by the data. (Note: he corrected his original numbers.)
