  I missed that one, seems to be really popular now thanks to the iphone.

    unfortunately. Mixing Objective-C and C and your code looks a little bit frankestein-ly, and it is impossible to avoid. The messaging pass part of Object-C is no near as elegant as erlang.

      I'm not familiar with Erlang - can you give an example?

        to get started: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actor_model http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actor_model The actor model is a very powerful conecpt. It will become more and more revelant as multiple cores, concurrency, and scalability become more and more important. I think that Facebook successfully used Erlang for their chat system.

  Made my first foray into ObjC this weekend; my goal is to create some iPhone/Touch apps.

  Objective-C here, too. It's kinda cool because I get to re-learn C at the same time.

  I started diving into it 4 months ago for fun. At first, I didn't like its syntax style. In case anyone is wondering, this is what I'm talking about: object.message(arg1, arg2) vs. [object messageOne:arg1 Two:arg2] But now I'm really enjoying it and working at it full time.
