I've been using Python for almost as long as I've been using Perl. I'll admit to still preferring the latter language over the former for web tasks, but I use Python for a lot of other scripting and application work that never sees Apache or a website. The strong typing, mathematical and object oriented features lend themselves well to some of the work I do.

Recently though Python (and Perl) have been on a minor hiatus while waiting for the next big version to come out. Perl 6 is in development (there's a good overview of progress and features) but to some it seems a long time coming.
