April 7, 2009. That was the day this book was given to me. It was a graduation present for us given by the staff of Auza.net, the company where I had my OJT and currently where I am working now.
40 Stories of Passion. The book written by Bo Sanchez. Actually, I am not a fan of reading books but I was curious on what was stated there on the book that all it takes is one story to change our lives forever.
I started reading the book as a past time. It includes 40 different stories front 40 different people. I read one story every night before I go to sleep. Every story has a lot of lessons to learn. Lessons that can make you realize, think and ask for yourself if how close are you to Him. I’m not that kind of a religious type person but every time I’m done reading a story, it makes me ponder for a while on how was relation to Him.
Yeah, I know my friends will laugh at me and say,”Pag-sure ui…” because they know as not like these. Well, it’s me. Hehehe…
Now, I’m done reading all the unbelievable stories of 40 people. You out there, maybe you should try reading this book. Trust me, it’s worthy.

AJAX is based on JavaScript and HTTP requests. It is a type of programming made popular in 2005 by Google (with Google Suggest). It is not a new programming language, but a new way to use existing standards. It is a group of interrelated web development techniques used to create interactive web applications or rich Internet applications. With Ajax, web applications can retrieve data from the server asynchronously in the background without interfering with the display and behavior of the existing page. Data is retrieved using the XMLHttpRequest object.

Ajax uses a combination of:

• HTML and CSS for marking up and styling information.

• The DOM accessed with JavaScript to dynamically display and interact with the information presented.

• A method for exchanging data asynchronously between browser and server, therewith avoiding page reloads. The XMLHttpRequest (XHR) object is usually used, but sometimes an IFrame object or a dynamically added <script> tag is used instead.

• A format for the data sent to the browser. Common formats include XML, pre-formatted HTML, plain text, and JSON. This data could be created dynamically by some form of server-side scripting.

One example of AJAX riched website is FACEBOOK.
