Which programing language do you use? Why?
Personally, I use PHP & Ruby on Rails for my programs. Rails is a new language to me, and I'm having a blast. It tends to be very streamlined, organized, logical, and seems to take about 40% less development time.
I have been considering building a Tube "script" in Ruby and offering it to the community... but it would be in Ruby. Not sure if many people would be able to edit and alter the code as they wanted.

Ruby may be supercool, but personally I'd still wait before jumping on (depends on the type of project, of course).
The ONE thing, besides everything else, that makes PHP still unbeatable is the amount of codebase out there.
You want to do X, but in the way Y, and you have a special case Z.
Google XYZ, and 99% of the times there's something out there that does almost exactly what you want.
Most of the times coding in PHP is largely a matter of google/copy/paste/adapt.
