The other day I was talking with a friend of a friend at a bar.

Him: "I do web design and computer science for major business X"

Me: (What kind of stuff do you do, etc., etc.)

Him: "It's really cool, I just found out about this new technology, A.J.A.X. (He actually spelled it out.) It lets you talk to your server without reloading your H.T.M.L. page!"

This is no lie.

In unrelated news, 90% of all business-to-business software sucks.

LOL... well, good to know the competition isn't too fierce at any rate.

It's actually a marvel Pipes hasn't been shutdown yet. When that inevitably happens, it will be sorely missed.
