BASIC (Vic-20) -> QuickBasic -> TI-83 -> Visual C++ -> Java -> VB6 -> C# -> javascript -> VB.NET

Definitely more C# than anything else, and I like it that way.

Well at 1998 (I was in class 6th) I started with DOS Batch Script (which was my first OS and first time to work with computer) then in 2000 when I learned MS Words and MS Excel I started working with MS Access and was interested with VBA Application in MS Access and learned HTML from a book,
but after Learning VB6 in year 2002 I was happy with VB6 and playing with it a simple Notepad a few function of MS Paint etc...
and in year 2005 I started VB.Net and after 3 months I started C#.Net and then MS SQL Server 2000 and then PHP and MySQL in 2007 and now I am learning (C, C++ and Java) from past a few months.
and diagram looks like this:
2009 -> Learning (C, C++ & Java)
2007 -> PHP, My SQL and CSS
2006 -> VBScript & Javascript
2005 -> VB.Net & C#.Net + MS SQL SERVER
2002 -> VB6
2000 -> VBA (Office 1997) & HTML
1998 -> DOS Batch Script



and now I am happy with PHP/MySQL and C#/MSSQLServer

:)

HTML > CSS > Cold Fusion > PHP > SQL

That's a fair way of putting it.

This is the chronological path that I started learning a language. It doesn't reflect at all how much I use the language, how long I used it, or any variants of it (css? really? people list that?)

KliknPlay->Basic->Visual Basic->TI-83->HTML->Javascript->Java->Perl->C->C++->Java->PHP->Python->Bash->asm->Ruby->C#->Actionscript

HTML -> bash scripting -> failed at C++ -> python 3.x -> failed at C++ again -> understanding of python 2.x, never used -> Java -> will begin learning Haskell, Smalltalk soon -> will learn C++, C#, PHP for school soon

Definitely my best languages are Python 3.x and Java. The book I have for python is great (Mark Summerfield) and I am doing Java for school, the book is a perfect ref guide to help me out :D
