Three years later...
Digging back through some older blog postings, I found this prediction about ruby that I made in Jan 2005. Always nice to have a prediction come true - back then, ruby was still mostly a niche language, used by relatively few people.
"The one thing that hadn't changed much [since 2000] is that the language hadn't achieved the critical numbers of developers to become of the mainstream languages but I think that's about to change very soon. I think Ruby is now at the tipping point and that Ruby on Rails may well be the thing that pushes it into the mainstream."
