Dave, Updated now thanks.

Christopher, Absolutely up for it. To a great extent, the "J" covers the "A" and the "X" anyway. There's a need to document all the little useful idioms (like $("domElement") ) as well as big architectural patterns and techniquees, like OO/inheritance, handling portability issues etc.

Steve, Thanks for the link. Looks like they're aiming for something like the webpasties approach, Minimum programming - Ajax for the people!

I recently found a free web service at ajaxed.com that allows users to add “live search” capability (similar to Google Suggest) to their website without programming. Looks cool and is works for non-programmer types.

A section for Javascript Patterns would be wonderful as well. I can contribute a wide list of articles that assist “digestion” of some of the trickier concepts out there. I’m not sure if I’m the best person to construct the actual patterns themselves, but we should start… The J in AJAX is maybe the hardest part…

It’s http://map.search.ch (not map_s_).

And they’ve been around before Gmaps…
