Having used php for the last year in my job, there is one thing I
appreciate: with a language that is focused on string manipulation, it
is so much better to be able to simply output variables inside strings
rather than having to exit a quotation, and use a concatenation
operator.

Facebook.


Nothing personal, but I wouldn't consider any of those social networking
sites to be remotely "serious".

Me neither until I started working for them. Facebook is one of the most difficult companies to get hired at as a programmer, and as a direct consequence has amassed a lot of talented folks working on hard, interesting problems.
