I'm actually at the Perl Conference in Pittsburgh today, and will be speaking tomorrow about "dead" languages. TL;DR: There really aren't any.
For those involved in the Perl 5 or Perl 6 communities, the Perl Weekly (http://perlweekly.com) is a great roundup of news and useful articles.
Full disclosure--I have, in the past, been one of the editors of PW.
