Hah! I bet you did not look at the mirror at the same time! Cheater!

I think it's a bit of a zealous here for all this "don't say AJAX",
"AJAX is a wrong term" etc.

Any term is good as long as it commonly accepted. Who the hell wants to
type/say every time "I'm having problems with sending and retrieving
data over XMLHttpRequest and its equivalents"?

"My AJAX doesn't work!" - it's much better, is it? :-)

AJAX as a term is short, nice (Greek myth) and it has "J" in it. What a
hell more do you want? And who cares what does this abbreviation mean
(if anything)?

Does anyone see a lot of sense in ActiveX? Why not ActiveZ? And even if
X stays from eXchange then it doesn't reflect the nature of ActiveX.
But it is sound and easy to say - that's suffice.

You jast wait JSON will come (coming already). Lucky if 1 of 10 will
eventually know that it's JavaScript Object Notation. But it will not
stop anyone from using it.
