There are literally hundreds of programming languages, most of which are historical curiosities, research tools or personal projects. You would think that most of the important innovations have happened, and existing mature tools available for all tastes. That is true, to a point: but we are still exploring the space of expressive notation for solving our programming problems. Here the practical programmer and the academic researcher diverge, of course; the latter sees most new languages as rehashes of things first done in the golden age of PL development.
