Sky News goes Ajax

Really, really delighted to see Sky News finally adopting Ajax technology for its image galleries. The click-to-reload-the-whole-page approach was just unacceptable in 2008... and it's great to see my own baby, the always-popular 'Pop Up Papers' press review which won me a 2001 European Online Journalism award, finally growing up. It's got its own permanent URL and everything. Sniff. They've also started dropping Ajax photo galleries into stories - see this David Beckham example. Hats off to them.
