Google AJAX Search API Blog: Speed up access to your favorite frameworks via the AJAX Libraries API
by 1 other (via)The AJAX Libraries API is an attempt to make Web applications faster for developers in simple ways:
* Developers won't have to worry about getting caching setup correctly, as we will do that for you
* If another application uses the same library (much more likely), they there is a much better chance that it will be already caching on the users machine
