Tattle for Rails stats

Tattle is a new ruby gem and website that aims to be the Ruby census. I’m a sucker for stats (especially with graphs) so install the gem and submit your data! The current results show the popularity of Apple at ~30% (including both darwin and PPC arch), with Windows and Linux accounting for ~20% each. I’d speculate the high usage of Linux since it is the preferred Rails hosting platform.
