I find that when writing web applications I use a fair amount of modules (HTML::Template, CGI::Application, etc.) . However, I generally stick to writing my own frameworks because generally I can customize a framework that I wrote much quicker than I can absorb the architecture of someone else's framework and then decide if it is a good fit for my app or if it needs retrofitting.
I think that in general most people tend to re-invent the wheel instead of doing a cpan search. And in some cases I think it is justified. Of course there is no point in doing it when there are "standard" modules that already do exactly what you need (templating, database, etc.).
And I do have to confess that I did write my own templating system a while back, and it is still in use in production systems. <bows head in shame>

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
