I’m starting to add more AJAX elements to my newest web projects and I must say that I have been increasingly impressed by the script.aculo.us library of AJAX resources.

Not only is it very well documented but it also comes with some really nice out of the box examples you can use to get started right away.

Plus - is it just me or does it seem that web sites with AJAX functionality (for users with javascript enabled) seem a lot happier than web sites without? It seems to give a site a bit more personality when you can receive a bit of feedback for actions and don’t always have to refresh the page for every little happening.

If you’re a developer - try it out, the learning curve isn’t as bad as some would think.
If you’re a web site owner I suggest mentioning it to your developer and see what they say.

I know that not all web sites are suited for AJAX but the ones who are should definitely think hard about adding that extra little something to their site.
