Learn C# or VB for a PHP programmer?
For a few years I developed websites in PHP, but couldn't get a job doing this nearly two years ago. I spent a year teaching (and if your thinking of teaching, my advice is don't! In the UK anyway), but kept handing my CV out to different web development companies. One of these offered me a job, but the downside (or upside, depending on your views) that they only developed websites in ASP.NET. I made the decision for a career change and accepted the job.

In ASP.NET, you can develop in either C# or VB.NET. The guys I work with are using VB.NET, and I have to say I'm struggling with it. I can understand the basics but it just seems weird, especially as I've come from PHP.

C# on the other hand, looks similar to PHP. I'm contemplating learning C# instead of VB, but I'd like to know what other peoples opinions are about doing this?

Cheers!
