Well, if you want to see OO in different languages, I'd look at: Java - high ceremony, good for large apps Ruby - low ceremony - very dynamic. Just remember not to blow your leg off Smalltalk - The granddaddy of OO languages but still used in some domains. Check out seaside for a continuation based web server. Very interesting and I'm hearing it scales better than I'd have expected. I think it'd dabbleDB that was written in Seaside.
