In defense of AJAX, there are places where it can very useful. It is currently being used by the washington state dept of transportation for displaying the traffic camera images (http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/traffic/seattle).

If all goes well I will be working on this page in a few weeks so leave comments if there is something that can be improved.
