JavaScript, of course =)
Other than that, I'm decent with a few other web-oriented text-based languages, like HTML, XHTML, CSS, and I've been recently learning XML and XSL.
I also know a bit of Perl and C++, and I'm decent with POV-Ray. Math! I forgot that. Math-related things are my specialty =)

Specialization? Specialization is for insects! (I felt I had to say that, heh.)
I'd be much more comfortable if you had asked for my "areas of expertise", of which I have many. I consider myself an expert in Photoshop, HTML, Javascript, PHP (now ;-), Auto Mechanics, Oriental Carpets, Childrens Books, Carpentry, Cabinetmaking, Information Architecture, Systems Analysis, Buzzword Compliancy, Cartooning, Pen & Ink renderings, Perspective Drawing and Science Fiction literature. I'm also more than adequate as a bullshit artist, I can cook a tasty meal, (I know how to make Crépe Suzettes!), given the right equipment I can do a pretty neat welding job, and I'm told I give a very good backrub! There's a few other things I guess I can do; play chess, play Othello (at championship level), paint with oils, draw with pastels, sculpt with clay, that kind of stuff. I'm sure there's about 12 dozen other things I consider myself good at, but they all slip my mind right now. ;-)
What is a man, and how do you define him? I am large, I contain multitudes!
Your pal, -doc-

I'm not an expert in anything.
I don't consider myself an expert in any area because for me if I start to feel that I'm an expert in a area I think that I know every thing about it and will just become stubborn towards people who are trying to teach me new ways or new things in the areas I think I?m an expert in.
I only do my best in what I like and love doing and that counts more than classing your self as an expert. As you will not challenge yourself in what you do as you think you know it all. Maybe I?m wrong on this but that?s just my view on this.
So I?ll leave this one up to you if you think I?m an expert in a certain area or not.

Can't say that I'm an expert at anything. As long as there is more to learn I will never count myself as an expert on the subject. But comparing to those I socialise with in RL, I'm probalby above average in css, javascript, photoshop and php in the computer area. I'm also getting better and better at making and driking coffee
