Not necessarily at your day job, but definitely on the side.  Even while
fully inside the MS camp, at your day job, you can have a lot of fun with
Javascript and jQuery,  A few lucky souls might even be using F#, Iron
Python, or Ruby at their day job.  Definitely you can use Powershell to good
effect at your day job.  I do hate Visual Studio more each day, I must
say...

WPF never passed the smell test for me.  I do not discount the possibility
that I'm mistaken, and when I see the first decent WPF or Silverlight app
I'll have another look.

This may even be Silverlight, I don't know:

Whatever it is, it's excellent.  If it's Silverlight, it's the first decent
one I've seen, and cause for reevaluation.
