Facebook applications can now be built purely using Ajax technologies.
The introduction of a Javascript client levels the playing field for developers who can now make Facebook API calls purely from static html files, significantly reducing the load on the server. There are some limitations; the photo upload api won’t work and only the current users profile page can be written to, but the remainder of the api still functions.
