Web content the Ajax way

In continuation of my killer apps series, today I am posting on a killer app that's taking the web experience to new heights. Its called Ajax(Asynchronous JavaScript + XML), and what it does to the user's web experience is something that all of us experience everyday but fail to take note of.

To answer that one simply has to understand that how is it that Gmail differs from the normal web based mail interfaces. The storage limit aside(which isnt surprising because storage is getting cheaper with every passing moment), probably the most powerful value-add of gmail is that it brings the power of a desktop e-mail client to a web based application.
