But once more people are involved, email's utility rapidly degenerates.

I won't bore this magazine's savvy audience by recounting for the umpteenth time how, when, and by whom the term was coined, and I fully realize that many of you had been working - sometimes for years - with JavaScript, XML, and related languages and approaches before the term AJAX came into existence. http://ajax.sys-con.com/read/361283.htmhttp://ajax.sys-con.com/read/361283.htm Fri, 13 Apr 2007 19:15:00 GMT The conjunction of AJAXWorld Conference & Expo 2007 this month with the publication of the 600-page blockbuster Real-World AJAX, the announcement by the OpenAjax Alliance of the OpenAjax Hub and OpenAjax Conformance, the release by Laszlo Systems of OpenLaszlo 4.0 and the Laszlo Webtop...all these thing coming together at once mark a significant milestone in the brief history of AJAX, rich user experiences in general, and the growing challenges and opportunities in this space as we continue to witness a tectonic shift in the way Web apps are designed and built.
