I agree with almost everyone else, that AJAX is way overhyped. It's not a language (some job postings now read, "Must be able to program in AJAX.") Oh well, I was joking with Scott the other day at work about how some fool on the train winced at his PSP because it didn't support HD. I told him the same fool probably would have said he wouldn't get a PSP if it didn't support AJAX. Anyway, I came across a good succinct description of the Javascript code you add to a page to get the whole asynchronous XML thing working.
