Sending JSON to the server adds a layer of complexity to both sides.
If it has no benefits (I don't see any), then yes, you're better off
keeping it simple and using a query string and $_POST instead. jQuery
handles object to query string conversion automatically:
$.post('cheese.php', { cat: 1, mouse: 3 }, callback);
