Python is my favourite programming language and JavaScript is a close enough second.
I have some experience with python and I've built various things, from small utilities to websites with it. My most interesting project was helping to port a scientific application from c++ and Qt3 to Python and Qt4. It was interesting to see just how much the code shrunk, while keeping the application itself just as speedy.

My most interesting project was helping to port a scientific application from c++ and Qt3 to Python and Qt4. It involved writing some Pyrex as well.

I have used JavaScript and HTML to build a small web game, Mousebuster (not online, get it from [http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/317039/mousebuster.zip my dropbox]). Although at first I did not like javascript at all, I quickly realised it's immense advantage: huge existing install base.
