Briefly describe the software trends. What are scripting languages? (e.g. php) what is Ajax? What distinguishes a so-called Web 2.0 site or app from other sites? What I did write down was that scripting languages = more capability to webages and I still cant figure out from my writing what you were saying about Ajax ! Anyway. If you see this tonight and can help me out or send me in the right direction that would be great! Thank you.
Hi Steven,

Unfortunately, techies are inserting the wikipedia definition. Basically, Ajax compliant web languages enable the creation of web apps that can draw processing power from the client workstation AND the remote server. This is why gmail seems so snappy (it's created
with an Ajax compliant framework).
The long term goal is to create apps over the web that appear just as fast and usable as regular desktop apps.
