Perl was created by Larry Wall to help him get his work done, and has been improved by many people across the internet. Perl when combined with other free software can be used to create large web sites with software that is free. Perl has a powerful user created library of software called [[CPAN]]. Programs for science, math, online advertising, and almost any purpose can be downloaded for free from CPAN. Perl can be learned at home and competent programmers can make $50/hr and up. One complaint about Perl is that programs done in Perl are hard to read when they are revisited later. This is a symptom of the felaxability of Perl since there are many shortcuts and ways to do things. Perl can be easily written to be simple to read. Perl frameworks are now becoming popular. A Framework is a set of companion programs to LAMP that add more abilities and provide solutions to other common problems of building websites. [[Catalyst]], [[Gantry]], [[Jifty]], and [[BOP]] are examples of frameworks. Perl users chat on the free IRC chat on the [[Freenode]] server. If you are nice they will answer a question live.
