- The document discusses lessons learned from building rich interactive web applications using AJAX and a mash-up architecture at Microsoft Windows Live. Some key lessons included evolving the AJAX pattern to handle real-world issues, developing component models, managing networks efficiently, and ensuring cross-browser compatibility.
- The Windows Live team adopted a mash-up philosophy where properties and experiences were composed of reusable components or "gadgets". This brought benefits like more efficient development and ability to quickly integrate services.
- Building robust, interactive web applications requires patterns for areas like asynchronous client-side page composition, component integration, theme management, and handling unreliable networks and security issues. The document outlines various approaches and best practices.
