I feel like this article is dead on. It's old but the principles still hold true. > Because C# is really, really good. The first language I learned was VB.net because I thought "Visual Basic" sounded easy. I quickly moved to C# because it was more popular. I've always been curious about F# but never invested the time to learn it exactly because C# never caused me enough pain.
