this weekend i experimented with google's go a bit. i kind of like it and i am looking forward to version 1.0 at the beginning of next year. i also checked out scala a bit recently. it looks like a nice alternative to java. i thought a thread about non-mainstream (or even esoteric) programming languages would be interesting.  http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/content/paperinfo/tpci/index.html
1 1 Java
2 2 C
3 3 C++
4 5 C#
5 4 PHP
6 8 Objective-C
7 7 (Visual) Basic
8 6 Python
9 11 JavaScript
10 9 Perl
what languages that aren't in the top ten here do you like (delphi, lua and actionscript don't count either)? did you use one for a real project?

why not? details please! superficially it for sure looks much nicer than java but i haven't really used it. I'd like to hear some opinions on D. What I read did sound pretty nice but it seems it doesn't get that much attention... i like d. but i didn't do any bigger project with it either. d is similar to c++ but without some of its biggest annoyances. i currently find go more interesting though. i really dislike c++ and only use it if i absolutely need the functionality of a library that isn't available for other languages. java and c# are an improvement but i wouldn't really call them great languages either. i more and more think that it's better to ignore the popularity of a language and concentrate on what is fun to use. it also doesn't hurt to know a lot of languages. does anyone can program a very old language (like ALGOL60)? basic and c are very old too.
