I found the last paragraph/sentence a little weird - "Until then, I think people will still continue to mostly build in Rails with a large contingent going to iOS – the latter not due to the superiority of the development platform, but rather because that’s what is needed to access iOS users."

Rails -> iOS??? Apples and oranges.

Ditto from VB to the other tech (php, rails). I think he is after something else; a pattern/trend regardless the platform: desktop, or web , or mobile.
