So many companies have jumped aboard the AJAX train that when we wanted to do an informal survey the other day on upcoming Web and Internet technology trends, I was able to quickly compile a list of 800 different companies that are leaving the station.
AJAX is moving toward the enterprise. Google, the company that helped light the AJAX wildfire in the first place by using it in Google Maps and Gmail, has since then released a paid version of its Web-based applications for small businesses, Google Apps Premier Edition, which relies on AJAX.

I would like to draw your attention to another alternative which is a paradigm shift for AJAX/ Silverlight front ends. One should be aware that I am not, and do not pretend to be objective, never the less I believe that one can judge for himself. Visual WebGui is an open source rapid application development framework for graphic user interfaces of web applications, Silverlight or standard browser at developer/ user's choice. VWG replaces the paradigms of ASP.NET in both design-time and run-time which were designed for developing sites, with WinForms methodologies, which were designed for developing applications. Thus enabling designer that was designed for application interfaces instead of a word documents (ASP.NET designer). This provides the developer with an extremely efficient way to design interfaces using drag and drop instead of hand coding HTML. Visual WebGui is an AJAX / Silverlight frame work that doesn’t expose logic, data or open services on client requests and therefore is not as vulnerable as common AJAX solution. VWG presentation layer is de-coupled and that is why it becomes developer choice Silverlight or standard browser.
NO!!! Visual Webgui is not!!
Not a component library – It is a complete revised approach to developing web applications.
not a JavaScript generator – It runs on the server controlling the browser using a small static JavaScript kernel.
Not a closed / locked-in framework – It has many extensibility features, which allow integration of legacy resources (ASP.NET or DHTML resources) and the development of custom controls and behaviors.
Worth a look at www.visualwebgui.com
