New Programming Language Makes Coding Social Apps Easier

"And users can import functions from other programming languages, Kamvar says, so interaction design and social processes can be written in Dog while other functions can be written in another language."
You can already do this in a wide selection of content management systems (which is what this language would most likely be competing against.) Some content management systems have their own easy to use template syntax so that you don't have to do any actual programming. One line, add x feature. If you need more functionality, then you can build a plugin.
This idea probably breaks down pretty fast, just as a content management system does. Only the most basic web sites can be built in a CMS without having to break into custom coding.
Perhaps this would be an interesting option to replace content management systems in certain situations. I'm intrigued, I would like to check it out. However, even simple programming languages are often too much for end users, especially once the ecosystem starts getting crazy with it. People will still get paid building apps in these sorts of languages for others (as easy as Wordpress is to configure, it still has a huge developer base getting paid to configure the thing.)
