I was also blown away by Google Chrome's client-side JavaScript environment (though Safari's environment is good for me, too). I started getting into web development a year ago when I placed on a web-based project; I came from a background where I was doing systems programming in C. I appreciate the power of having a REPL and great graphical tools whenever I'm doing client-side web development. I wish the tools on the server side were as sophisticated; the debugging environment for Node.js is spartan compared to what's available in the browser.
