The thing I personally love about JSON is that i can pass around data structures... without caring how they are represented!! One encode call on the server, a decode call on the client and then I'm back to directly accessing the data. IMHO, that is the true advantage of JSON. The other things like it being lightweight, javascript friendly, etc are just side benefits I think the major thing that people are missing with JSON vs XML is that there are many, many libraries that do encoding and decoding.
