Unless you're in SF, it's easier to find Pythonistas than Rubyists, hipster jokes notwithstanding.

But the stats show the giant, kitchensink frameworks are pretty even in measurable terms, but Rails had about 5x individual committers.

"Unless you're in SF". isn't there where most startups are? so if many of them use ruby and rails in SF why it isn't the main framework outside SF.

where do you live?

Thanks for your comments(for all involved in this thread). For the moment I am living the UK. But also I have lived in France where I used symfony1.4. But now I am a bit lost trying to get my hand in different technologies. Thanks in advance for all.

I recommend checking out Django, it's a great framework, also really easy to approach and learn. Their documentation is perfect!
