A colleague of mine, Ivan Moore, suggested some years ago that you should as a developer learn a new language every year. Since then, I've tried to follow the idea. This year is the year of Scala, and so far I'm really enjoying it.
I have no prior experience of a functional language, so Scala offers the opportunity to learn something new. I also like the idea that I can compile my Scala components and package them as a jar, which is seamlessly integrated with Java code, meaning that in theory at least, I could create components in my existing project at work!
