So what web framework are we supposed to use now?

  "So what web framework are we supposed to use now?" Flippant answer: Whatever works Pointed answer: I am paid to write RoR apps. When I need to get stuff done at home I use Perl, if it's for the web I recommend Dancer[1], which was inspired by (i.e. nicked from[2]) Sinatra[3]. I've found MVC to be a little bit too much architecture and scaffolding for many tasks. edit: Not to say I don't want an architecture, but the routes and templating of Dancer are the essentials. Occasionally I will find myself missing the bloody lovely validations in Rails' ActiveRecord, but I am usually grateful for the light weight of the finished product and the fact that the entirety of it fits in my head when building with Dancer.
