So is Python!

I don't feel that a newbie should be learning a web language as his first. It just seems like an unintuitive learning process to me.

Ruby/Python don't have that same "click and drag into FTP client then load up in browser" ease, though.

I'd definitely recommend PHP to anyone who wants to jump into web development.
