A few weeks back, I received a review copy of the book AJAX and PHP: Building Responsive Web Applications by Packt Publishing. After going through it and finding thats its a good one, I decided to write a review on it. So, I sat today and wrote a few lines about it in Amazon. Here is an excerpt from the review:

Solid package bundled with great AJAX and PHP code

“After telling you everything you need to boost your own site with AJAX, they start to tell you how you can avail different AJAX functionalities in your site – Form Validation, Auto complete, Real-time Charting, Drag-n-drop, and so on. These are divided in the rest of the book in chapters. Each of them has a real-life working example that can make you think “Oh man!! I was looking for this to be in my site!!!” Although it’s more code than theory, you won’t loose the path as they start the chapters with a problem-solving manner and after showing the code, explain them step-by-step.”

You can see the full review here.

If you’re looking for an online file storage service for your personal files, Box.net is providing the most exciting offer in this kind. I’ve just found it through some blog entry (can’t remember where). After I registered, I was stunned to see the exciting ajax-based site panel.

Here goes the main features for a quick look:

• Easy file upload (supports multiple file selection)
• 1 GB disk space FREE
• File sharing among peers
• Tagging and Foldering both

Don’t miss it if data is valuable to you or if you need to keep your data mobile.
