I am a big fan of using custom events where it makes sense in applications. I took it too far in the early days of Bespin, but I really enjoy them where they make sense.
Chris Vanrensburg was talking to me about Virtual DOM events, and when I asked him about them he told me this:
there are not enough juicy real DOM events, and the DOM standards process is slow moving. It's long been a bone of contention that the

OK, this is nothing shockingly new, but I found it pretty useful. Using jQuery, Ajax has become more or less a one-liner:

$(document).ready(function(){
$('.ajaxtrigger').click(function(){
