i think what i'm enjoying most about node.js and the new frameworks, is that they require me to think differently. i'm also optimistic about coding end-to-end in the same language (client, server, database). this is a big learning curve for many folks. i remember when folks transitioned from C to C++ and from C++ to Java -- it takes awhile. i think this is going to be a lot of fun to see where it takes us. also i think work like coffeescript and future IDEs might make this really interesting. Also meteor -- lots of creativity and cool things.
