I personally use Merb/DM for my own personal projects... but I make my money during the day with Rails. You can't pass on the idea that Rails brings simple, RESTful (in its own way), CRUD applications to the masses. Where languages like PHP have failed us. Rails spawned an entire resurgence in highly tested and quickly developed applications on the web. While its not an end by no means, it has pushed "Web 2.0" further then any other language/framework to date. Ok, now lets go write some Merb/DM/Rspec and Erlang swinging apps... ;) Don’t count Rails out.
