JavaScript: The Best Thing Ever?

After a lot of interest during the preparty, I think a session about JavaScript is warranted. Because JavaScript is the best thing ever.

HTML

I disagree! I think HyperText Markup Language is the best thing ever. But yeah... JavaScript is ok...

Extensible HyperText Markup

Extensible HyperText Markup Language is way better than HTML (the un-enforcement of whose rules led us to horrible, horrible code). So HTML can't be the best thing ever. I would say that javascript frameworks that allow us to focus on the code without worrying about browser specific issues (not for the purpose of using their pre-built plugin functionality, which can lead to poor coders) is the best thing ever. That's what finally made coding fun.

XHTML

Yup, XHTML is waaaaaay better.
