Mashup Data Formats: JSON versus XML
On one side, we have the XML/XMLHttpRequest camp. It uses the world-wide XML standard for data. It also involves using the XMLHttpRequest capabilities of most all browsers to retrieve information from a server. We use the XMLHttpRequest object to get XML from our server. So when we say XML in this article we really are talking about both the data format and the data transportation pattern: the two are tightly linked in this area. Due to security concerns, the server has to be in the same domain as the web page.

Proxy Servlet for AJAX requests to multiple, remote servers by Lucas Jellema
AJAX is hot, great and will make the world a better place. We all know that. However, AJAX has some limitations. AJAX is about making additional HttpRequests from the browser once a 'normal' request has been satisfied and an HTML document is loaded. Once the initial load is complete, the browser may fire additional requests for resources such as Images, CSS documents and JavaScript libraries.

A lot of bits have been pushed around the blogosphere on the topic of Ajax over the last few months.

Dollar E: A document.createElement Wrapper
The primary new feature ( from my perspective ) was a brand new UI that made use of AJAX, which I built on top of the Prototype JavaScript library. There was a lot of dynamic element creation based on the data coming back from the AJAX calls, and thus a lot of document.createElement calls, along with the appendChild and insertBefore and the element-property-setting statements. It's very verbose.

Social Bookmarking From Inside Second Life?
Last week one of our clients at Ideacodes held a virtual fashion show at their virtual showroom in the online world known as Second Life. Stylehive, which is a a collaborative shopping community purchased land and built their virtual showroom inside of Second Life several weeks ago. Since then they have populated their space with items that users have bookmarked in the hive. These products that they feature in their showroom are not just the user submitted images, they have been rendered in a 3-D program to be exact replicas of the original products. Very cool.
