I agree with you. Just posting to say that there is an HTTP server in Erlang that's supposed to be very good: Yaws.
I was using FORTRAN, Erlang, and Python as examples of languages which are heavily used in industry, but have neither the crushing popularity of Java/C# or the pop-culture appreciation of Ruby or Javascript. It doesn't really matter how much Haskell or Erlang are used, or how many billions of dollars pass through their runtimes every day; for whatever reason, the Internet has decided they are not popular.
