This is the from the golden hammer anti-pattern... when you have it
everything is a nail.  That being said, there are some really cool java
script toolkits that make java script really easy (like YUI and Mootools). I
admit I am guilty of using it on several websites because it was "cool".

As for Gmail, there is no reason that you need gmail open 24-7, just use
IMAP and a real client same for the IM.  I find that if I leave gmail up for
more then a couple of days I will get the "the script on the page has
stopped responding" errors.
