I understand the necessity of Javascript if you have a web app, but a lot of sites fail to display a page of text or a list of links if Javascript is disabled [1]. In my view, this is poor practice. What seems to be happening is that more and more people are using Javascript frameworks to build web sites (not web apps). This probably makes things easier for the developer. I'm not convinced it always makes for a better experience for users.
