If you think, Ajax is interesting wait until next generation browsers are released. The future applications will blow you away.
There are many technologies are emerging (e.g. XAML, MXML, SVG and X3D) which are far more complex than DHTML/HTML to use and build data driven applications (e.g. Games, GIS and real-time simulations), however offer great flexibility and fine-grained capabilities to build superior graphics applications.
The following web site presents a method to create reusable GUI widgets (a higher level reusable building blocks that eliminate the complexity), which can be used to build Ajax applications such as games, GIS or real-time simulations.
