>> Do you really trust the tiobe index?<<

The Tiobe index is a measurement of Internet activity, not of absolute 
popularity, or job ads, or
performance of any kind, or anything else. It is a glorified popularity index 
based on an algorithm
designed by some team.

All you have to do to make FoxPro popular is blog about it, make posts on 
forums and note FoxPro. It
does not matter if you say FoxPro rocks or FoxPro sucks. Every post on this 
forum is index by the
major search engines so when someone says VB.NET stinks and C# is for the birds 
the index rating for
those languages goes up. When many developers in the Fox Community were 
blogging like crazy about
FoxPro the ratings went through the roof. With less bloggers blogging today the 
ratings go down. 

Really, too much was made about how FoxPro was rising in popularity when it was 
up and too much
negative interpretations as it has trickled down the list.
