Maybe it’s just me but over the last few months I’ve read a few articles related to how nobody uses Perl any more to program. Some of the articles were written defending Perl and others smashing Perl for it’s outdated techniques. I for one love Perl and use it for many things on a daily basis including this blog. Perl was my first “web language” and I still use it today for many web related projects even though it's loosing ground to newer languages like PHP and Ruby. Every since I became more familiar with Perl frameworks I’ve fallen back in love with it. When I want to start a new project I just assume I’m going to be using Perl because I’m very family with the language and I can’t see how the other, more popular languages, would work any better.
