C#: I've spent allot of time working with C# on SharePoint and other intranet applications that integrate with AD. The power of Visual Studio to deploy and test code makes development smoother and faster. I'm excited about Microsoft's push towards open source and integrating Linux tools into Windows and what that means for the future of the Windows platform.
Ruby: I started like most people with Ruby on Rails, using it at hackathons for rapid development. I'm currently partial to the Sinatra project because it reminds me of Flask.
JavaScript: I've worked with AngularJS and NodeJS on small projects and I like the ability to offload logic to the client to reduce traffic and provide a richer experience.
Go: I'm interested in where the Go language is going and of my favourite projects is Ethereum, decentralaized platform that provieds a way to trust an application to always finish it's task.
