Posted in Websites or Tools

While the term AJAX may possibly be a little overhyped and overused these days, when AJAX is used appropriately it can really enhance the usability of an application and make many tasks far quicker to complete than they otherwise would have been.

This list of 20 great AJAX effects has many of the effects you’ll see on the larger sites that are truly embracing AJAX such as better form validation, auto-completing text box lists and file uploading. If you’re looking to create a truly awesome experience for your user on your websites you really need to be implementing these UI patterns in your websites now!
