AJAX

AJAX is not a programming language in and of itself — it stands for “Asynchronous Javascript and XML” which is a fancy way of saying it allows you to control your web pages without the traditional “refresh” each time you click on a link. For example, it’s AJAX that allows you to update your Facebook status without seeing the screen reload.

AJAX has some really neat applications like the search engine “suggest” features that help users know what to search for or the ability to save a document while you’re still working on it. The options are endless!
