i think php is a great starter because of the web aspect. especially if you're already familiar with html, you use php as the tool to generate the html.
for me, learning is much easier when i'm building an app i can really use, and not just an academic exercise. i can think of many more web apps that would really be useful to me than c++ apps and when projects are personal, the curiosity and determination to achieve a goal make the normally dry aspect of 'learning' something almost transparent.
since you've already exposed yourself to html, go for php. it will be refreshing compared to vb.
