Windows Live Mail and AJAX

Walter Hsueh (one of our dev leads) has a good post on best practices for building AJAX applications. I’m assuming there will be many more since this is labeled part 1 :-).

This is an interesting post because I'm doing more and more ajax work for clients as they are requesting "flash type" apps.

Trying to get their internal (or other developers at the consultancy I work for) to understand why you want to build and use objects vs. some methods they googled up is pretty tough sometimes.

But a lot of these guys write stored procs vs. using an or mapper (a buddy of mine, who now works in Redmond wrote a cool attribute based or mapper that has saved me hundreds of hours of sql development).

I was just looking at JSON for some stuff for xbox media center... I wish that Walter would expound on what the team did with JSON (or the flavor they used) and some of the frameworks (logging, stack traces, etc. that they used/developed).

The windows live mail ajax application isn't very well tuned up, I especially dislike its slow responces in those autocomplete thingy and the spell checker when I'm writing. Instead of becoming a useful feature, it slow down the user experience. Not very good.
