     Learn (the basic syntax of) a new programming language every month in 2010
That's a bit more like it...

Silly idea. One can learn the basic syntax of a language after a days worth of toying with it. Python has such a simple syntax, but you don't really know the language until you know all the awesome modules out there.

I'd rather become more fluent with one or two new languages over the course of a year

I think you meant "Learn a new programming language in 2010" since Haskell is on that list. I cannot imagine learning Haskell to any "useful" degree in anything less than 3 months.
