Yeah, C, C++, C#, Java, VisualBasic, ASP.NET, any of those... Those are
the ones I tend to see job adverts for, in general.
Some would claim that VisualBasic is the language that took over the
niche that Delphi used to fill.

OK, that was tongue in cheek. As others have mentioned, C++, Java, and C#
(+ASP.NET) cover most bases. If you like Delphi, C# won't disappoint, as
it's proof that a curly language can be a sane language.

Java's been mentioned (you know, for getting a job).
I'd suggest also learning a scripting language. Python is my addiction.

ASP.Net's not a language. It's a web development 'framework'. ASP.net pages
are written in C# or VB.Net (or any other .net language).
To add to that, php (often with MySQL) for web development. I'm starting to
see a couple ads for Ruby, but not very many.
Saul, are you looking to learn a langage for hobby work or professionally?

Ruby as in Ruby, the language, or Ruby as in Ruby on Rails (which is a
web development framework in which the pages are [obviously] written in
Ruby)? :)

I believe the industry is more interested in PHP than in Python. At least
on the web development side of the industry.

Well, technically, Rails isn't a language, much like ASP.Net isn't a
language and I was talking about languages that I see in job ads.
To answer the question, I don't recall if the ads were for Rails or plain
Ruby. It's more that the language requested caught my eye as I deleted the
job ad from my mail box.

Really? All it seems to do for me is periodically send me an email
saying "hey, uh, we don't have any jobs for you right now, but why don't
you come check out our TOTALLY COOL WEBSITE?!"
Which isn't very useful...
