AJAX drives GMail, Google Maps and Google Suggest

Who here has looked into AJAX?

AJAX stands for Asynchronus Javascript and XML. In its simplest form, you can think of it as a form that updates itself without having to hit a submit button.

This guy has a pretty good simple example of one.

AJAX isn't a new program language it is just a way of using Javascript to pre-fetch and pre-send information without the browser needing to refresh. With Google maps, when you scroll the map, the form has already retrieved the side maps so there is little or no waiting.

It is pretty sweet technology that most vendors are going to implement into their web development environments soon.

I've always been a big fan of Ajax, well at least until I moved here.

They had some cutting edge tactics and won several awards with their leading team.

I'm eagerly awaiting the final release of vB 3.5, which utilizes AJAX.

Yep... this forum is running vB3.5 beta 3, so there are some cool AJAX stuff (mostly on the moderator side), but end users can do AJAX stuff like quick edit, quick reply, edit thread title, etc. There is going to be a lot more AJAX stuff in vBulletin going forward as well...

It just goes to show you, you don't have to create anything new to be a success. You just have to know how to implement it.

Was Google the first group to name AJAX?
