CROMA
I've not seen the language yet, so I'm still not totally clued in, but the winner of this year's Young Scientist won for developing a new Lisp dialect. Exciting obscure programming news! Too hard to explain! Late for dart! More later, hopefully...
Update: A handy Lemonodor post partly by the author himself. Yay. Now I wonder if I should have stuck with Lisp for longer. On the other hand, I am finding Haskell even more liberating...
Regardless, awesome stuff. Hats off to Patrick Collison.

AWVC uses the Markdown formatting system, a very simple way to format your comments. Whitespace is converted directly. Enclose a phrase with asterisks to italicise, and two asterisks (**) to embolden. A good introduction to the Markdown format is available here.
Cleverly, though, the preview is basically useless (it will just show what you've typed). If you want a real preview, enter your text into the Markdown Dingus, then re-enter it here.
