Heavy-weight Thin Clients

Here is another article in the series of articles that I have posted about using Javascript, CSS and XHTML to create a more responsive web-based application. This article is better than most as it describes the environment and technologies used much better than others and also contains a quick analysis of why this approach is good. The author seems to refer to something called Ajax, which I believe is what he calls this approach to web development. The confusing aspect is that it talks about Ajax as though it is something that you can download and program to. Nevertheless it is still a good article that discusses the technologies and why you would use this approach to web development.
