Initially I started with Python because everyone told me it was the best intro to coding, which it was and I'm glad I did. But I want to be focused on the web, so I think it's important to know PHP (despite some people knocking it, it's still used on 75% of the world's web servers).
The two languages I'm really focusing on now is Ruby and PHP. I want to get good with both. And if you want to do anything on the web, you gotta throw Javascript in there as well.
Oh yeah, I always hear great things about Django. Definitely want to try it out at some point. I'm just focusing on Ruby/PHP for now so as to not spread myself too thin.
I'm not judging Python. I'll definitely come back to it, but I'm just focused on Ruby and PHP for now. Ultimately, languages can always be picked up here and there, but what's most important are your problem solving skills and what you've built, I think.
