Age in the spotlight doing web development. Not age since the development of the language. Mid-nineties it was CGI and mostly Perl. Then Perl started to fade, and in the late nineties, early '00s, it was all Java and PHP. Then Ruby/Python etc co started to catch on in the mid-00's. And already Ruby and RoR is considered "passe" and old, and fadsters turn to Node.js and such. Seems to be a 5-7 year cycle.
