JavaScript Creator Talks About the Future

Posted by timothy on from the browser-as-universe dept.

mikejuk writes "JavaScript is currently an important language — possibly the most important of all the languages at this point in time. So an impromptu talk at JSConf given by the creator of JavaScript, Brendan Eich, is not something to ignore. He seems to be a worried about the way committees define languages and wants ordinary JavaScript programmers to get involved."

    when I turn JS off (which is 90% of the sites I visit) I don't miss a thing. in fact, turning it off saves me from a lot of spam.

    I have zero respect for javascript and less for a creator who thought we NEEDED this junk.
