Ajax and the "Web 2.0"
At the start of "Web 2.0" the name mean nothing more than a name of a conference. In a very short time the name turned into much more that the name for a conference. ""Web 2.0" seemed to mean was something about democracy" and the growth of the web and it sources.
With the 'creation' of the "Web 2.0" many new programs and applications were created or changed to help make the idea of the "Web 2.0" more useful. One of these many programs that were created was Ajax. Ajax simple means "JavaScript now works." In other words web-based applications were now able to work much like desktop applications. Now Ajax uses the web-based applications it creates as a result of the "Web 2.0"
Every moment, new software is being created to take advantage of Ajax. "There hasn't been such a wave of new applications since microcomputers first appeared." The fact is that both Microsoft and Goggle are watching a new generation of software being written to fast to take control of it. Their own hope is to buy up as much of the best Ajax startups. Google has an advantage as they have had a "big head start in buying mircostartups as it did in search a few years ago." One example is Google Maps, with is an Ajax application. This shows that web-based applications are a large part of the "Web 2.0".

A good post. AJAX is indeed an important technical step in making web interactivity fast and seamless. It makes a lot of web-based applications possible.
