It is a boom time for dynamic languages. Two weeks ago Microsoft announced DLR (Dynamic Language Runtime), last week Sun announced JavaFX, and two days ago Code Gear (a.k.a) Borland announced support for a brand new Ruby on Rails IDE.

Next year, majority of .Net development for Web and Silverlight will be done in a dynamic language of some sort, be it JavaScript, Ruby, classic vb or Python.

Your online projects will be a mixture of C# 3.0 and one or two more dynamic language as glue code, developed in more functional style.

So get more comfortable with the ideas of lambda, function as objects, dynamic typing, metaclasses, object notation, currying, tail recursion.

Get used to less typing :)

We will hold the second SilverKey Demo Day soon and you bet that we will deal with trend coming to the .Net world.
