Google Releases AJAX Framework

maquina writes "Google released a new AJAX framework based on Java. From Google's mouth: "Google Web Toolkit (GWT) is a Java software development framework that makes writing AJAX applications like Google Maps and Gmail easy for developers who don't speak browser quirks as a second language." This impressive framework promises to make AJAX available to the masses and is one more step towards Google becoming the de facto Internet platform provider."

    Is there a way to filter out stores from the homepage by keyword? AJAX would be on my filter list.

    Such is the dynamic web, I guess. You take a dynamic news site, throw a dynamic company at it, sprinkle liberally with a few trolls and fanboys, and you get a perpetual P.R. machine.

  4. More Java Added To The Quagmire by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    I just wish that Java would dry up and blow away. I don't like it one bit. Not on the server and definitely not on the client! Java makes a 3Ghz machine with 1GB of RAM run slower than a 486 66Mhz with 8MB of RAM.

    I sincerely hope that NO ONE defiles their website with this framework!

    Java is the most assinine concept the computing world has ever seen.

    C is portable, java is not, period.

    Oh, and javascript STILL sucks.
