Unless you want to count Dr Logo (Amstrad's program where you move a turtle round the screen), then my first real programming was BBC Basic. I can't remember the exact year but I was probably between 10-12 (91-93).

After that I did (In approximate chronological order):

Q Basic
Visual Basic + VBA
HTML
mIRC script
C and C++ with Win32's API, MFC, OpenGL and DirectX
Assembler
Smalltalk
PASCAL (Borland Delphi)
Java & Javascript
Perl
SQL
B
PHP
I've just started Carbon (Mac's OSX API) with Objective-C and Cocoa (Same API but in Java)

I also went to uni and studied Software Engineering sometime in the middle of that. Some of those I know better than others. My PHP is much better than my assembler and I can barely rememeber Smalltalk. I also came across other languages like Tcl and Fortran which I had an overview of at uni, rather than learnt.

Next stop: Applescript.
