Some libraries really do clutter the global namespace. Thanks for the link!

It has changed status from being considered a second grade language to proving to be really useful. I too think the js frameworks have helped making it more useful and popular. The object model in Javascript is really cool. But it's also widely misunderstood since it depends on prototypal inheritance which is not well understood by most people coming from languages with classical inheritance. The more I learn about Javascript, the more I like it. No doubt it contains a lot of serious flaws, like global variables. But once your recognize them you can avoid them.

I think the JS frameworks are giving a new step to the language. OOP is being more and more present into a language that people underestimated for years in a row. Like happened to C when became C with Classes (C++), is JavaScript evolving to JS++ ? Yeap, objects are awesome. I think the JS frameworks are giving a new step to the language.
