Hi! This is great! I was wondering if I can help out with any more ajaxization during the Hackathon. Is there still work to do? If yes, where and what? I would also like to try to ajaxize the portals a bit, for snappiness (like http://www.netvibes.com/, or http://www.google.com/ig). What do you guys think? Is it possible?
