OutPost Marketing blah

Thursday, March 15, 2007

OutPost hijacks the form post back event and

  • tells the server to execute the post back locally on the server,
  • an optimized DHTML-response is sent back to the client,
  • the page is updated using cross-browser DHTML and
  • page reloads and flickers are thereby eliminated.

Bandwidth usage is minimized by

  • diff-comparing two consecutive responses,
  • keeping state on server,
  • keeping js framework light,
  • compressing the response,
  • sending optimized DHTML and
  • not using Xml or JSON.
