Well, the thing is Rails is a huge thing, if you try to build your small project on Rails there is a change you are overdoing it, you are better off with Sinatra.

I learned Rails 3 a while back and never touched it again after finding Sinatra

Starting your blog or personal site with rails is a waste of time, or whatever non-app website, well not a waste if you learn, but technically it is time consuming, you could work faster.
And if it is a small app that only needs a database, you are still better off with Sinatra.

Still Rails is a great framework, build to do anything you want to do, just be sure you actually need it before starting.

It is not going to die though.
