Hello,
Yes, Perl is in use quite a lot on the Internet for creating CGI
applications. My personal preference is PHP, but some people prefer
different things, and it's good to keep your skills broad.

I learned basic Perl/CGI from the tutorials at www.pageresource.com.

You will need a web host that supports CGI, I'm not sure if Evolt does or
not.

If you just want to learn the language Perl, without getting into web
applications, you can go to www.activeperl.com and download the interpreter,
and practise by running your scripts through it.

Hope I helped,
