Ajax is all about Web 2.0 sites, but the technology is also useful to build a desktop application running as a web server on your desktop (localhost).

In this talk, I'll guide you how to build a rich desktop application running in your browser using jQuery and its UI libraries as a frontend, talking to Perl and HTTP::Engine based web server backed by SQLite database, based on my experience with the media RSS browser application Remedie http://remediecode.org/
