Trends are funny, and don't only go in one direction. According to the admittedly flawed TIOBE index (see http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/content/paperinfo/tpci/index.... for verification), in the last year PHP, Python, and Ruby have all fallen, while Perl has increased.

Yeah, not what I would expect either. But Perl isn't as dead as people claim.
