* No page refreshes. The user doesn’t need to wait for an entire page to reload, and for all the elements to be rendered.
* Allows for a more fluid user experience. You have control over what happens between requests.
* The user is never left with a blank white screen, as they might be when navigating in the conventional way.
* Allows you to address connection issues within the comfort of your template. The user isn’t faced with a horrible browser message. For example, if their connection goes dead while on your website, and if they try to access a new page, you can simply show them a message to that effect.
* Fully bookmarkable plus back-button support. Using Ajaxy does not diminish usability whatsoever; I’ve made every effort to make this as accessible and usable as an Ajax integration-solution can be!
* Ajaxy is very flexible. It will work in most situations. If, for example, you need to re-initiate event handlers within a replaced area, Ajaxy provides a way to do that via function callbacks. Although, I recommend you use jQuery’s live() for most event handling.
