We will have to see whether this kind of technical leadership converts into swift mass-market adoption or not.
Before starting them in on 4-5 hours developing code, Dion Hinchcliffe (pictured at the podium) gave attendees at the first-ever AJAX University Bootcamp a rapid-fire overview of the fast-paced training course ahead of them. 'We're going to try everything from mashups to the depths of Dojo pub-sub,' said Hinchcliffe, as he primed attendees for what he called 'Programming to the Metal.'
The Great America Ballroom here at the Santa Clara Convention Center was completely packed as at 08:30PM Hinchcliffe opened up the day's training.

Well before the advent of AJAX, I build javascript to monitor a user's mouse trail and keypresses over a website. It would take this information from event handlers, and serialize it into a cookie, which would be read by the next page they visited on the site, stored, and could then be played back easily through an admin interface.
If you've been assuming this isn't possible, or in use (the company I built it for still uses it, I believe), you're missing a point here.

I am sittig in Santa Clara listening to Dion Hinchcliffe here in the Convention Center. Great quote (he just this momrnt said this): "The neat stuff about AJAX is that it makes Web services do something for you while you're still looking at the page..."
It seems clearer these days that highly general purpose software like simple e-mail, blogs, wikis, and other social software can enable and form the foundation of almost uncounted open ended and adaptable collaboration scenarios.
I often get asked for example of this happening in the enterprise, and while negative examples often come to mind first (pyramid schemes via e-mail, creative phishing attempts, and so on), some of the real emergent Enterprise 2.0-like scenarios I can cite are really back out on the Web.
