Programming Languages History

a big diagram of the history of languages

Quite nice and should keep you interested for 5 minutes whilst your looking up your favourite language.

Although, I didn't notice Blitz Basic.

 		No Blitz, no Amos, no Dark Basic.. In fact, for game makers that list kinda sucks!

It's, like, "Computer Languages-ala-College" as opposed to "Languages you actually use"

 		Well, Blitz Basic and Dark Basic only take up a tiny niche of programming languages. If you look on the TIOBE index you'll see neither are listed, and so are out of the top 100 programming languages. Seeing as number 50, Dylan, has only 0.077% of the share, Blitz must be pretty low.

Also notice Java is at the top, and Ruby has the highest increase in users (easily) of all the top 10 languages.

 		That's as cool as the Linux distro timeline chart!

It'd be interesting to see a games-programming specific version of this. Like, top programming language measured by games produced. Might get Blitz showing up then.
