I use it a lot; it rocks.  You can't get stuff done faster than you
can with Mason, and it still allows you to design things properly if
you are careful.

http://dev.perl.org/, http://jobs.perl.org, http://search.cpan.org/
are using Mason.

Chapter 8's code walk-thru of apprentice.perl.org is quite good.
Kudos to whoever came up with idea to dedicate a chapter to discussing
a production application.

I've only read chs 8 and 10, but it looks like this book is going to
be perfect for turning my novice-intermediate Perl developers into
Mason gurus. 

My sense is that the book is really going expand Apache/modperl usage.

Happy hacking,
John

I've never used it, but FWIW, I recently interviewed at Amazon and they 
told me they are looking for more Perl programmers because they plan to 
use Mason.

Mason is a (powerful) templating/Perl-in-HTML language used by many as a 
templating language or as a general web programming environment (it has 
good modularity it seems). I don't use it, but you may want to check out 
the analysis done by Perrin Harkins at 
http://perl.apache.org/docs/tutorials/tmpl/comparison/comparison.html
