Over the past two years,
AJAX as a general
technological approach
seems to be maturing very
quickly. 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. 
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.
