Asking for a raise is the obvious thing to do here; you're now responsible for picking and teaching new tech. That's an important (and pretty cool) position to be in. It should be worth something.
Of course if you actually dislike working here, you could also start looking for a new job. Programmers who learn new stuff and can teach it to others are always in demand. In fact, just getting some experience teaching that stuff to your boss and co-workers is not a bad investment in yourself.

Yeah that's a good point. I never considered asking for more money.
