Unglamorous PHP?

A conversation with Stef got me thinking. Why is PHP so…..boring?

There is obviously a lot of people that are really into developing in PHP, myself included, but it just doesn’t have the same wow factor that Javascript has, for instance. Nearly every PHP tutorial I can find includes javascript in an effort to make it more exciting.

I’ll agree that javascript has helped PHP development massively with the use of AJAX, but surely something that makes the world go round shouldn’t have to rely on something ’shiny’ to get people interested in it?
