Popular AJAX framework [jQuery][1] is one year old today and marks that milestone with a [1.1 release][3]. JQuery has long had a devoted following who tout it's speed and lightweight structure which make it easy to integrate complex effects with on a few lines of code.

The new version of jQuery boasts numerous enhancements including bugs fixes, speed improvements and a simplified API. The creators of jQuery have also overhauled the documentation and gathered the previous scattered tutorials and guides [into one website][2].

There's a page available to [run speed tests][4] on jQuery 1.1 and the new documentation site should be a boon to web developers looking to get started with AJAX.
