Exactly. Having started building webapps (when there just called CGI) in 1996 and seen all of the app servers and platforms come and go, there has never been a better time than now to be a web developer, thanks to products like Heroku, New Relic, SauceLabs, CloudBees, etc.. I'm constantly blown away by the improvements in developer efficiently being made seemingly every day right now. This is why you are seeing a ton of startups (even the well funded ones) only hiring a small focused technical team. What is rather funny is watching how fragmented the mobile development space has become, with some exceptions (PhoneGap, SpacePort, Mobify, etc.), especially considering that is where people are moving so rapidly to do their computing. But I'm no mobile expert so my perception is probably skewed.
