Rich User Experiences

Web applications are becoming much more dynamic. Technologies are combined to create many ways to communicate. The term rich user experinces refers to the way many different things can happen in one display. Ajax seems to be the multi-tool by which alot of this capability is coming from. It is allowing the server to share the burden of running the applications with the user's computer. So the user's computer can respond to the user's keystrokes and also anticipaite the future needs for information. This makes it quicker to respond and more fluid.

HTML supports standard websites, DHTML supports the more dynamic uses of web 2.0. These advances are making the web come alive. It makes not only more interesting graphics, but give groups of users a real time way of collaborating without using gasoline.

You are in my group and I can't respond because I don't know which reflection this is supposed to be. Could you please label your reflections in the future? I need to respond to an adequate number of group members to get a good grade. I don't follow where you are at here.
