It's never too late to do the right thing. It may be expensive, and it may require swallowing one's pride, and it may not have the same benefits that doing it earlier would have, but it's never too late.

Would you really want google maps to be static? I remember those days with mapquest. I like my javascript.

Google maps is a reasonable use of javascript. Using a dynamic interface like that vastly improved the user experience. Can't say the same about showing an textual article or a photo.

This is like saying electric cars won't work because the energy density of batteries is too low to fly a 747 across the country.

JS should be reserved for heavy interactive applications. Not pages that amount to viewing a document.
