It's practically unknown, but I've never found any other language or development tool so well conceived. I’ve been using REBOL for years.

I've worked hard to get very good at it and now, finally, get paid for all of my efforts. If it became easy . . . well I would kind of be out of a job. For that same reason I don't want a nifty do-it-all machine that builds amazing furniture for anybody with an idea. I want a gifted craftsman to build something special with his hands . . . and get paid accordingly. The reason I love programming is because it is a craft and while every good craftsman needs good tools nothing beats hard work and experience. I guess that even if it becomes easy to build "good" user experiences there will always be a place for us who craft "great" user experiences.

I often think programmers are usually so busy making new and better products that they don't get enough time to focus their skills on their own environments and processes. Or even help teach new developers. Not sure how to solve that, but I guess the first step is awareness, so nice work there, buddy! 1 for making application developments more powerful.

I have the feeling that we are on the verge of some radical changes in UI development but that could just be wishful thinking on my part. If you have a second check out videoMaru.com - just watch the short intro video. That is something I came up with after building my 50th custom video player.
