  It's time to pack up and go home if you are going to straw man Github and Heroku as being popular merely because they are novelties or fads.

      You can throw wikipedia links to try justify an argument ("hey, look at how many other projects there are!"), but GitHub and Heroku both leverage RoR heavily and both are incredibly large, successful products. Having competitors does not a failure make.
