11 hours in and no one suggested JavaScript...I think you guys are all biased.

The rapid growth of MVC client-side frameworks (backbone), the push on the backend (node.js) and its inclusion in a growing number of technologies (MongoDB, CouchDB, ...) would seem to make it, at the very least, worth mentioning.

Repped. Same situation here, our entire backend is setup with this setup (backbone, node, d3, mongoDB). We are looking for developers in these areas, since I'm not a programmer - do you have any good ideas that I can check?
