I've done PHP and ASP before, so while I'm sure I could (but I don't know what our web host is set up with) I would need the time to switch everything over. Plus I would have to convince the GM that it would be a good idea for me to do it, and I'm definitely behind the times enough to not be able to convince her that it would be a good idea. I've actually curious about Ruby on Rails. My host has it and I'm just ... curious about it. I kind of doubt that the Jorb's site host has it, but you never know.

At lease that's what I've heard. If you can get into PHP or .Net, web development will be more relevant to your Geek knowledge, resume and general education. I dabble in PHP but I have done ASP and .Net. Being a Linux Geek myself, I prefer PHP for my own hosted site. If you really want to hang with the cool kids, try wrapping your head around Ruby on Rails. Cold Fusion is dead. At lease that’s what I’ve heard.
