Mark Volkmann did his AJaX presentation again, this time at the St. Louis JUG. The presentation slides and a demo app is available here. You need to install some Ruby stuff to run the server.

This is the second time I heard this presentation. It's an excellent presentation. If you have heard of AJAX before but never had the time to examine it further, this presentation is for you. (The demo app requires Ruby and MySQL.)

My opinions about AJaX has not changed from 49 days ago, a couple of days after I first heard it.

I have come across a couple of blogs that emphasizes the An AJaX web app is more like a GUI app than a traditional web app point of view:

Harry Fuecks:

Async Requests over an Unreliable Network

Eric Meyer:

Increasing the Strength of Ajax
