what are fun are the reactions of those "wtf, what now?!" microsoft fanboys. how can you get on without wcf? change your webservices with 10 liner restful json-based services.
The server-side implementation of the web services that would be called by these HTML5/JS apps has nothing to do with anything being discussed right now.
I like the automatic die-hard assumption that MS will abandon Silverlight and it won't be usable as a platform any more. Also, that nothing could replace it, even though they are saying html5/js will replace it.

Seriously... If that's MS's path, and you're following it, just... You know, follow it. It's not that hard.

Or go your own path, and pick the language you want to use.

Isn't replacing some restrictive platform with HTML5/JS good? do they even know what HTML5 is? -_-
I think this is great. Microsoft is having a lot of platform adoption issues and this will open up their ecosystem to a lot more developers so they can focus on adding value where it counts.
