I like Mark’s original post, I know where he’s coming from, and I mostly agree with him, but it won’t stop me from playing around with new toys.

As far as Silverlight goes, there is likely to be a fully open version (courtesy of Mono) by the end of year. Personally I find the idea of client-side browser programming with Python too compelling not to try it...

In my opinion you can do pretty much anything in js. I think it was pretty horrible before people started using XMLHttpRequest or alternatives. Also I think it was necessary to format the display using tables in the early days, and a lot of example code still does that. But those problems all solved now.
