Page 4 of 4 IndicThreads >> Where do you see Ajax going from here?
Dave Crane >> All over the place :-) The big server frameworks are picking it up. The new types of smart internet clients are doing clever things with it. It seems to be breathing new life into the ASP business model. I'm intrigued by the various gadget/widget frameworks – Konfabulator, Mac OSX Dashboard, and Vista Gadgets – that seem to be combining elements of Ajax and desktop apps, blurring the boundaries a little bit further. I only wish that I had more time to explore all these avenues, I'll look forward to seeing what happens in the next year or two in this space.
"Ajax is breathing new life into the ASP business model..."
IndicThreads >> Thanks Dave for sharing your views on Ajax. Any blog URL / email you would like to share?
Dave Crane >> Thanks for the opportunity to talk. I hope your readers have enjoyed my thoughts, and feel inspired to roll their sleeves up and get coding some interesting Ajax stuff!
My own blog can be found at http://dave.sunwheeltech.com/wordpress/, and my co-author Eric Pascarello keeps his at the JavaRanch (http://radio.javaranch.com/pascarello/ ). Eric puts a tremendous amount of energy into the various Ajax forums and groups on the web, and we'd both be very happy to welcome the readers of IndicThreads to our sites. (Our third co-author, Darren James, doesn't have a blog as far as I know. Hi, Darren!)
