you should do that like:

def on_button_clicked(button):
	print "Button %s clicked" % button

my_button.connect("clicked", on_button_clicked)

Note there's no () after on_button_clicked in connect call, that's
because you pass _function_ to be invoked, not invoke it yourself.
Generally, read pygtk tutorial available on http://www.pygtk.org,
everything is clearly explained there

Cheers,
Maciej
