Internet 2.0 Powered by AJAX

Hey guys, I thought you might be blown away by this as much as I was...

The new internet revolution, which people have been calling Internet 2.0 for the past few years is finally arriving .... Powered by a technology called AJAX, full blown applications run off the internet without the need to install them on your system.

You've already been using AJAX probably without knowing: Google Maps is powered by this tech. However, a full blown word processor, an illustration application and video editing software have all been released:

Word Processor: AjaxWrite
Illustration: Ajax Sketch
Video Editing: EyeSpot



Last minute news: Google just released the BETA version of their online word processor: Writely. It's going to be integrated into Blogger (also owned by Google)..



This technology has potential beyond the obvious applications. Not only will people be able to run complex applications directly online without the need to have it on their system - allowing future cell phones to run limitless applications without a need for a hard drive - but this technology is 100% OS agnostic. There is no differentiating between which OS it will run on because it runs on a browser which is universal.

The future of the internet looks bright!
