Depends on what you want to learn.

Perl: Extremely flexible text string manipulation features and scripting
features. Relatively easy to learn.

c++: Cross platform across several (all?) OS's. Extremely powerful, can be
extremely confusing with it's pointers and references. Most programs for
unix are written in this language.

PHP: Good scripting language for http transfer.

I would play with perl as it is easy and does not need to be compiled.
Then move on to the much more powerful c++

My $.02
