What exactly is the big deal with 'Ajax'?

Isn't Ajax really just remote scripting repackaged and re-branded?




Yes.  But all the cool kids are doing it. Cool

The point of Ajax is that it's fairly well standardised (almost kind-of sort-of) because it uses Javascript, which the majority of web developers are familiar with.

It is a case of PR getting the better of the technology because the first time you read up on Ajax, you think 'Oh, is that all?'
