Google Data APIs and Prototype

[Ubi]

I am realising that Google Javascript APIs are becoming more and more
important, for many different reasons. One of them is definitely OpenSocial,
which will make Google Javascript API's become a standard even for writing
applications within social networks like MySpace.

Basically nowadays with Google APIs you can write any type of AJAX
application.

I was wondering if in this way the use for Javascripts libraris like
Prototype or JQuery will become useless, or if instead there will still be a
reason to use them.

You said "... Basically nowadays with Google APIs you can write any

No: Google has addressed a large market and picked off the easier
stuff. But there's plenty of other more complex and application-
specific stuff they don't touch.

Hang on to yr libraries.
