After reading this article, I have no idea what the heck Direct Ajax is supposed to be and how it's any different from regular AJAX.
The product that the article advertises seems to be one of those huge, frameworks that abstracts everything you could ever want to do away into single function calls. (And even though the article talks lovingly about "No more XMLHttpRequest", the demo apps make 'em pretty much every time you click.)
I hate frameworks like this because when someone asks, "hey, why isn't x working," you look at the page and realize that the only code you can touch is a call to GenerateNewProprietaryWidgetWithLotsOfGoodies(). Your only option is to rewrite the darn page the way it should have been in the first place.
