It's time to dive into Scala

After about two years experience in Java, now it's time for something new. I have tried a little bit of Groovy and it was really captivated me but I'm not entirely convinced by idea of dynamically typed language. Therefore I decided to try Scala which is statically typed language. Furthermore Scala provides full support for functional programming. It's all sounds great! I want to describe my attemps and reflections associated with this language on this blog. Sorry for my english, it's poor because I do not have any practical experience with it, and this is yet another reason for creation of this blog. I will be grateful for all the comments and feedback on both the Scala and my english.
