Well said! I'm looking forward to the future to be honest. There's a lot of great new things I think on the horizon, especially with the cloud...look at Clara.io and Lagoa. In the meantime, we have Soft, Mootzoid, Exocortex and all the other cool stuff! Looking forward to 2014...whatever may happen.
