Hi-tech Boondocks
February 2nd, 2006My parents live in Parry Sound, a small town on Georgian Bay in Southern Ontario’s cottage country. It’s not a backwater by any means, but not particularly famous for its leading-edge tech community, to be sure.
Imagine my surprise when my friend Shane McChesney pointed me at the Parry Sound website to find a really cool Ajax-driven related-search-results popup that is triggered by selecting any of the text on the page.
As Shane says, this Ajax stuff has certainly crossed the chasm when you find it in such hitherto unexpected places.
