Just finished up two days of finding out what's new with C++ (C++ 11) at GoingNative2012. You should view the rebroadcasts at that link.
The conference was pretty amazing, and the language (as of right now) is sufficiently different than "old" C++ that it's finally getting modern (ie, doing crap the compiler should have been doing all along) is finally allowing you to do.
