Just found that very recent (couldn't deduce the date) great video recording of Bjarne Stroustrup giving a talk at the Texas A&M University.
The topic is the new C++0x standard scheduled for 2009, but some general topics are also addressed during Q&A's.
Like Peteris Krumins, I also stopped everything I was currently working on for that 90 minute video. It's very interesting and if you are into C++, this is a must-see. It's worth the time!
C++ might lack the framework of Java & C# and have some problems with it's reminiscence of C, but it is still my favorite language, as the parts of the language integrate together most nicely with true generic templates. Let me quote Mr. Stroustrup's side blow on some other languages:
If you write vector<int>, you really get a vector of ints, not a reference to a vector containing references to ints.

Hey, thanks for mentioning me :)
C++ lecture was amazingly great, I enjoyed it much. There are several others I have not blogged about. Look up C++ on google video :)
