Is it just me or are we about to see a new 5 cent an hour job crop up with 100,000 idian workers propping sites up. SEO 2.0 ..... Well if it ever comes to be that is.
"Rigid" - In the sense that from a readability, reuseability and a more structured manner; C# requires you to maintain a more firm structure and more defined variable declaration. These things from a growing, hacking company hold a huge value to us. I of course just envision this and could be full of crap. But the purpose was what technologies where you excited to try. Could you tell me why C# wouldn't be a better fit than js? Seems to me you might enlighten the community more giving us information than trying to give us lessons on how to answer an open ended question. I apologize if I was weaseling, I'm just excited to try it, I'm not a clientside c# expert. Of course the portability from interpetors is huge too, but that is actually less why I'm excited to try it. That is just a given more.
I would rather work with a more robust and defined language. Certainly having hacked dHtml for so long, javascript has grown a place in our hearts. I have not used it yet, so maybe I won't be impressed with how it works clientside. It's still new to me.
