Because it's down now, a vague summary from what I saw.
Python and Ruby are now basically "mainstream" languages with little of the all new sparkle they had several years ago - little early adopter aura around them. What languages have that 2004 shine in 2009? Author decides to try Scala for this reason and likes it. Author thinks Scala is the new Python because people are excited by it.
