The Ajax revolution is complete: Sophisticated JavaScript user interfaces are nearly ubiquitous. Yet, the innovations in the Ajax community continue. In this session, Dion Almaer, co-founder of Ajaxian.com, will discuss the latest developments, including multithreaded JavaScript technology-powered UIs, robust offline storage, choosing the right Ajax/JavaScript technology framework, Ajax outside of the browser, and more. Take a look at how you can use Ajax to make compelling applications for your users, not just for gratuitous effects.

Prerequisites: Knowledge of Web technology such as JavaScript, CSS, and HTML
