Language shouldn't matter, it's the tools around it. Now instead of having one massive amount of tools for a single language, the way of the future (that's already here, actually) is fragmentation and cooperation. Ever heard of LAMP? It's four very different tools and multiple languages that make up only a part of a larger software stack that is only for a particular purpose. This works surprisingly well, and it's easy to swap out any piece you want with another. And this wasn't by design of some massive company like Sun or Oracle, but merely cooperation and good old software interfaces.
