There was a lot of articles about HTML5 last days, so when Alexey Kovyrin asked me to help him with his new blog design I saw no other choice but using HTML5.

The patent covers all rich-media technology implementations, including Flash, Flex, Java, Ajax, and XAML, when the rich-media application is accessed on any device over the Internet, according to the patent holders (Source).
As reported by CNET:
Internet design company Balthaser announced Tuesday that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has granted it a patent for the design and creation of rich-media services over the Internet.
Balthaser apparently intends to license the patent to companies that deliver rich-media services over the Web using technologies such as Adobe Systems’ Flash, AJAX and Java.
There is interesting fact that the company filed the patent in 2001.
Today I found an interesting resource about AJAX – AjaxLine. There are many news, articles and other usefull information about this cool technology can be found on this site. It’s posed as specialized community and it has a good chance to become the most popular AJAX-developers area in the Internet.
