I have never heard of that language before. But it really looks interesting!

You should also take a look at some of the examples:

That's surprising. It even has a wikipedia page.

Given the fact that no new languages will ever succeed ever again due to the deletionism in wikipedia I've started making a list of languages everyone should have heard of:

dao, nimrod, pure, rust, factor, coffeescript, boo, scotch, ela, vala, ooc, x10, bitc, arc, newlisp, cobra, seed7, wirbel (no longer developed)

Cool. Yes, I know that Pure had to do some fighting to keep its wikipedia webpage: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion...

But hey, every single episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer has its own descriptive article, and that's what's important, right?

I really like interviews with programming language creators, especially programming languages I like.
