This article is really spot on, but the trick is that you have too be good. The market is flooded with designer come JS hack who learn a little jQuery and pitch themselves as a front end developer. I have done alot of development over 15 or so years and freelance doing Java, .NET, Database, SOA, iPhone, Android and JavaScript over the past 8 months I have not had a contract doing anything but JavaScript. I am so flooded with JavaScript work that I could not even get to one of the other projects even if I wanted to and JavaScript development seems to afford a 30% premium over any of the other work, iPhone coming a close second. Like the author said, it feels almost like the .com boom all over again.
