yes there are some telltale signs for common CMSs like Drupal, Joomla, Pligg, and RoR etc .. .. ASP.NET stuff is easy to spot too .. but as the framework becomes more obscure it gets harder to deduce ..
What I usually is compare the site i am snooping with another site that I know is built using a particular tech. That sometimes works ..
