Yeah this is definitely old news (the guys at WebFX were doing this years ago). I don't know why this got posted.
Plus, the author doesn't seem to know what exactly AJAX is:
"AJAX enables advanced features like drag 'n drop, dropdown menus and faster performance capabilities, which are now making their way into Web applications, she said."
Drag 'n drop and dropdown menus have absolutely nothing to do with AJAX. That's just plain old Javascript.
Sorry to break it to yall, but this really isn't that remarkable of a web app. If they had done it like Apple does, maybe it would be better. Someone needs to do it using the distance between the mouse and the image, instead of just a simple mouseover.

Has anyone tried IE7? It pretty much resembles Firefox. Tabbed browsing, search box, phishing filter, etc. No need for a plugin.
