Summer of Python
is an object oriented dynamic language which has became popular of late (along with Ruby). Beta 2 of Python 2.5, the official implementation, has just been released. Further, beta 9 of IronPython, a .NET implementation, has also been released, on schedule with the plans of having a 1.0 release this summer. It seems like, more sooner than later, we'll have to learn a dynamic language so it's going to be a good idea to download IronPython and give it a try.
