Treehouse planning on a future with Python?

Looks like they're looking for a Python teacher! https://teamtreehouse.com/jobs/at-treehouse-4f9d68e2-0f16-4ba0-a95e-11fd141e2388

Second best language to Objective-C for me. I've participated in several hackathons coding in Python. Who's ready for this one?

We are quite excited about this! We've wanted to offer this for a long time. Spread the word so we can be sure to find an awesome teacher!

Can someone explain to me the differences between PHP, Python and Ruby. Where would I want to use each of these?

This has come up a lot in the Forum: search for "php python ruby" and you should get some answers. Here are two from a while back that are helpful:

Your best bet is to sample them and see which you like and then go from there. Or perhaps you have a specific job in mind that might help you decide which one. All three are popular choices, and learning one (and its associated frameworks like Rails or Django) will help you transition easily to the others as needed.
