Can anyone explain why I should use this instead of other web programming languages?

  You shouldn't. This has no practical use right now. Google's basically just showing us what they think JavaScript should look like.

  From their "technical overview" page http://www.dartlang.org/docs/technical-overview/ http://www.dartlang.org/docs/technical-overview/ : "Dart will include a rich set of execution environments, libraries, and development tools built to support the language. These tools will enable productive and dynamic development, including edit-and-continue debugging and beyond—up to a style where you program an application outline, run it, and fill in the blanks as you run." Sounds like a Smalltalk-style debugger running in the browser. Though it seems these tools aren't actually ready yet: "This is a technology preview, not a product launch" -- http://dartinside.com/2011/live-from-dart-launch/#liveblog-entry-102 http://dartinside.com/2011/live-from-dart-launch/#liveblog-e...
