Continuing with the Ajax theme, today's tutorial is a little twist on the tutorial concept. Ajax is a constantly evolving technique and it can be hard to keep up with the latest tricks and gotchas, so to help you stay on top of things, we're gonna turn to everyone's favorite tech -- RSS.

Yes, today's links are to a couple of very nice blogs, which offer RSS feeds so you can always get the latest Ajax goodness delivered to your reader.

First up is Bret Taylor's very informative [Ajax Cookbook][1]. Here's a synopsis from the site:

>Ajax Cookbook is a web site devoted to publishing small, reusable snippets of JavaScript, HTML, and CSS that are generally useful to developers of Ajax web sites.

The code on this site is licensed liberally under the Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 license so it can be reused in any commercial or non-commercial application, and none of the code depends on any JavaScript framework or third party library. Most of the Ajax "recipes" are just a few lines long, but solve a common problem. The goal is that you can copy and modify the code snippets extremely easily no matter what framework you are using (if any) or what your application looks like.

The second blog I'll link to is one of the better Ajax-oriented sites on the web -- [Ajaxian][2]. Ajaxian covers just about all aspects of Ajax including changes and updates to popular Ajax frameworks like Prototype and symfony.
