+1 This rant seemed odd, especially bringing up flex so much. Does anybody honestly believe google would consider using flex for the wave ui?! Flash support is still bad in unix. Flex has its place, especially in the business app world, but is disliked by many and the interfaces are often clumsy or even inaccessible to some. JavaFx just isn't open or mature yet, and obviously Silverlight is not an option. Google has been all about speeding up javascript and making the browser the app platform. Open standards/Chrome/javascript/html is decidedly the google client platform of choice.
