round peg, meet square hole

Take a look at www.theroadkings.com - notice especially the URL’s as you click around the site.

The whole thing is ajax-driven, with no way of linking to a specific page (at least without downloading the ajaxEngine.js and reading the file). It’s a superb example of using latest kick-ass technologies completely inappropriately.

Why would you do this instead of using, oh I don't know, HYPERLINKS?

*shakes head*
