OK, let's try something...
Click this:
http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/
Pretty, isn't it?
Now click this:
http://www.python.org/
Not quite so good, eh?
Now this:
http://clean.cs.ru.nl/
OK, but nothing fancy.
Now this:
http://www.erlang.org/
Hmm, not looking so hot now.
Finally, try this:
http://www.haskell.org/
Highly unfavourable, eh? Looks cheap, amaturish and uninviting.
I guess this is why nobody ever uses Haskell...

Haha I could do the same with the competitors of the company I work for,
then list our company website (which isn't even <company_name>.com because
they can't be bothered to pay off some company 10000x smaller that already
has it). But sadly I doubt anyone would take any notice.

Not necessarily. We've called <name> and have <name>.co.uk, as we're
international we also took <name>.com. Now another company in Spain is
also called <name> and do something completely different to us, they
missed out on the .com and ended up with .com.es. We don't want their name
and they haven't offered to buy ours from us, we did use to get their
email from time to time when we had a catchall address though.

Our company has offices and factories in pretty much every country
worldwide, yet the <name>.com belongs to some very small not-for-profit
company based in the US that works in just one city.

Hmm, I always liked it's CSS. Well, if it shall make you happy, try this:
http://www.alu.org/alu/home
:P
Python and Ruby are targetted at pragmatic people who want to glue
together many different systems with a hip new-fangled language smelling
of wet paint. They know that to grab these people they should use lots
of flash.
Lisp and Haskell are more like targetting researchers and people who
love theoretical stuff... ;)

Heh. I'd still like to see the Haskell website look as pretty as the
Ruby one.
But then, Ruby's logo is... a ruby. Python's is two stylised snakes. I'm
not really sure what Haskell could have here...
Also, the "Hello World is tivial; here it is!" part. We could copy that
so easily...
