I wrote my app in Python/Django. My reasons were short:
1. I wanted to learn python, but was not really interested in ruby
2. Rails is too hyped. The problem here is that people pigeonhole you when they hear that you are a rails developer. If someone ever came to me and told me he was a rails developer, I would immediately perceive this guy as someone who jumps on technology bandwagons. The type of guy who listens to top40 charts.
3. Django just had a way better argument when it came to performance
and the most important reason of all
4. When I created a new Django project, it just created 3 files. Rails (when I tried it) created a bunch of folders and files. People have to understand simplicity in all its facets to be effective programmers, in my opinion!
