A growing theme in my work and thinking is that we've max'ed out on the object-oriented paradigm. The confluence of the web, XML, and message-based integration is causing people to (slowly) rethink the orthodoxy of the 1980's and 1990's. Things like Lisp/ML/XQuery/XAML/Xen/X# feel much closer to where I want to program than do Java or C#.
