I am sure this has been hashed and rehashed, but is the corporate world
suppressing Perl? I realize people pick and choose the languages they

and see on code.google.com that they have dev guides for Java, .NET,
PHP, and Python with client libraries for those as well as Objective-C
and Javascript. This being only one example, I see a systemic omission
of Perl from anything popular. Is this accurate ? Why is Perl omitted :
I must be seeing things.

there is a Net::Google on cpan so google probably doesn't need to provide that. hard to find an api/protocol without a cpan module for it. one module says Interface to the Google AJAX Search API. so as long as google publishes the api, perl will be hacked for it. this also means the other lang communities are too dumb to write their own libs to published apis. :)
