These all sound like some good ideas to look further into.
One thing I can think of is latency might cause an issue in some
instances.
Thanks for send along your ideas.

Short answer: having two (or more) languages in the same file is UGLY.
Embedded SQL, embedded HTML, and embedded javascript inside your
embedded HTML are all signs that You Are Doing It Wrong. Search CPAN
for some examples.
If your code is in different files, why not have them as different
applications, services, or components in a language-neutral framework?
Some possibilities:
* Simple web services (maybe even RESTful JSON web services)
* SOAP
* Google Protocol Buffers
* Hadoop Avro
* Apache (Facebook) Thrift
* COM/DCOM
* CORBA
* .NET
* Mozilla XPCOM

Okay all laughs aside and after I thought about this idea some more .
So why hasn't this idea not happened yet?
I once used another language that cross talked back and forth with
Python
via Unix domain sockets
So why hasn't someone come up with a better way that actually could
cross
talk back and forth to another language like Ruby from Python.
Or has someone for real?

PyRuby - Some Ruby for your Python!

It is a pretty interesting thought worth looking at if you ever
need to
blend the two languages at times.
It's only been public for 2 days so check it out but know it's
young yet.
