Sorry to be that guy but these graphs are awful. Also, author should probably think about color-blind people.

What about blind people? He should have clearly made audio versions of the graphs as well.

I guess that the only reason that Ruby is as low as Python is because Rails is so popular that people don't need to mention the word "Ruby" anymore.

Odd. PHP still going strong in a relatively PHP-hostile demographic, but none of the major frameworks (Symfony, Zend) that make PHP a viable option, and the presence of Cake in this list seems out of place.

More easily read graphs (slightly ordered the categories in terms of popularity and removed small results) Language: http://i.imgur.com/vDeE3.jpg Framework: http://i.imgur.com/NDOMa.jpg Data: http://i.imgur.com/Mio0j.jpg Smarty phone: http://i.imgur.com/uUjHG.jpg

Thanks for the 'easier-to-read' stats! Judging by this it's a good thing that I learnt Python, because my C++ skills seem to be falling out of grace. Hmm... Javascript, maybe it's time to bite the bullet...

How does one do something like this? What technologies did you use to get the data and to make the graphs?

Do it man, JavaScript has gotten a lot better.
