As all my other bookmarks have been, this page explains in wordy English (but understandable) what Ajax is. After reading this page I think I have a better understanding of what it is....actually implementing it might be another story though...
This is a simple document that explains how to add an API. It breaks down the different types and the pros and cons of each. As I searched for API info this one seemed the easiest to digest.
This website I found helpful for this module. I like the beginner sites that explain the simple stuff from the start. I would recommend this site to not only beginners but to web developers as well, it is always a good idea to review the basics.
I did this page for my personal web site. If you have seen the first, rough draft so to say of my sight, you will notice I have taken out the links as I am working on the site. But the links to the past projects work fine. If you click on the plus sign, you will see a description of the project, and if you click on the minus sign, the description will hide. I liked this idea because with all the descriptions on the page, the page looked too text heavy. This method allows the user to pick and choose which site they want to know more about, while not being overwhelmed or distracted by other text.
Here is a form where you can pick your favorite pop singer out of three choices. After you pick you favorite pop singer then you can pick their best song. Enjoy!

This site uses the google maps API to pinpoint the location of a restaurant. The most diffult task in creating this was trying to get the API to properly connect to the server. Once the key was properly loaded, the remaining functions seemed to work well.
This page points out the importance of sketching out a wbsite for design and programming purposes. In doing this it saves the programmer time and frustration in comparison with programming on the fly.
Wikipedia always seems to come through for me. This page describes "masups" and gives many examples of where they are and how they are used in everyday life.
This Webdesignerwall.com page shows 10 examples of what can be accomplished by using jQuery. I like these examples because these are features that I thought could only be achieved by using Flash.
This page just has the samples. If you want to use these effects for your own site, view the tutorials at--
