Things that made me choose Ruby as my first language:

* a lot of companies in my area were using at

* I knew a lot of people using Ruby, so I had a support structure

* out of all the languages I had tried (JavaScript, Python, PHP, C++), I enjoyed it the most

* Ruby on Rails made it easy to get a web application up and running

* I like testing, and Ruby-ists are big on that
