maybe it's a wishlist and not an index? :-)

It clearly isn't a measure of usage.  Maybe it's a "what's hot / what's

Both tiobe and the transparency index could be thought of as "hype meters" as they measure internet activity and not lines of code written. I still think it is interesting that there is a spike.

On a side note. I'd like to express my sympathy for the those in Brazil and Australia suffering from floods, particularly Brazil, which has now lost a large number of lives.
