QBasic

1992–1993

My earliest memory of coding - sprite animations on a 486

Javascript

1998–

One of my favourites - incredibly powerful once fully understood

ActionScript

1999–2006

Wrote a handful of small games, was great until Adobe tried to turned it into Java

PHP

2001–

Great for quick and dirty web pages, ugly syntax and libs though

VisualBasic

2001–2003

Served its purpose at the time, but in hindsight was horrendous

VBScript

2001–2007

Used with ASP for websites and WSH for Windows automation

2002–

Used on and off when requested - very boring language albeit a capable one.

XSLT

2003–2005

Yo Dawg, we heard you liked markup...

Python

2005–

By far the best of all languages I've learnt

bash

2005–

Only basic working knowledge to get by with Linux

Linden Scripting Language

2006–2009

Incredibly crude C style scripting with rewarding results - created a lot of 3D gadgets with it.

Haskell

2009–

Wrote an experiment paint program using wx - loved the elegance and mathematic nature, can't wait to get back to it when time permits
