I'm wondering what the people on this list think of the new proprietary AJAX toolkits/APIs that are springing up. (I'm thinking of things like TIBCO, backbase,...
I do a lot of development in ASP.NET and prefer components that hide the Ajax details from me. For example, Dart's PowerWEB LiveControls suite is modeled after...
I guess I'm not ready to trust any Ajax framework yet to let it do high-level stuff. Maybe it's because of my experience dealing with proprietary technologies...
My fear would be that these companies wouldn't stay in business, then I'd be stuck with a solution that: 1. Won't evolve as browsers change. 2. Won't be...

If anything, the article is about Flickr's evolution from a real time chat / image sharing app, to a more persistent web based photo sharing site. I don't...
