One key development - to me perhaps the most exciting - is an approach to web development called AJAX. This is just what Ajax means to change. To make a long story really short, an Ajax application uses JavaScript to get data from the server whenever it is needed, without requiring the browser to redraw the entire page.

The crowd will be huge, right? And cheering?

Anyone who has ever written an AJAX application will likely agree that while it makes sense from a security perspective, the "same origin policy" is the root of all evil. A lot has changed since then, most notably, Google has updated Analytics to use what's known as an asynchronous script. Oh, memories.
