Tim Berners-Lee
I have always imagined the information space as something to which everyone has immediate and intuitive access, and not just
to browse, but to create. [...] Furthermore, the dream of people-to-people communication through shared knowledge must be
possible for groups of all sizes, interacting electronically with as much ease as they do now in person.
The Mobile Web Initiative is important - information must be made seamlessly available on any device.

Classic Web Application Model
129Normally, user actions would generate an HTTP request
AJAX Web Application Model
130with AJAX these requests are JavaScript calls to the AJAX engine. Many users actions don't require communication with the server and can be handled by the engine. If the server is needed, the engine makes the request asynchronously using XML, with no interruption of the user-application interaction.
