Old style and new style classes in Python

What is the current state of affairs with new-style and old-style classes in Python 2.7?

I don’t work with Python often, but I vaguely remember the issue. The documentation doesn’t seem to mention the issue at all: The Python Tutorial: Classes. Do I still need to worry about this? In general, should I declare my classes like the following?

class MyClass:
    pass

or?

class MyClass(object):
    pass

    Always subclass “object”. Those are new style classes.

    • You are ready for Python 3 that way.

    • Things like .super() work properly that way, should you need them.
