Someone is going to figure out a really nice framework on top of nodejs for making webpages with javascript.
edit:
Which is to say, I think javascript is a great language, has the benefit of being the de-facto language of UI development on the browser (and on a lot of embedded apps now as well). Nodejs alone is much too low-level and evented for normal humans to use for throwing together a web site without callback mindfucks, but its a great base to build something on.
