Anyway it has no direct relation to REST as long as REST refers more to the transport layer than the UI, so you can continue using REST and an event-driven for your UI design I agree with gonchuki, the web is currently evolving to a richer UI paradigm, so event-driven solutions, at least for the UI, are superior to the traditional web application approaches.

And you cite 37signals as non-restful applications? Read again :D They are one of the groups that has made REST "more" popular in this last year, thanks to rails restful approach to development. You still misunderstand REST :) LOL. And you cite 37signals as non-restful applications? Read again :D

The web is not about stateless stuff anymore, we need a much richer interaction that is demanded by these desktop-like web applications and what I advocate in this article is to remain consistent throughout the whole application design process. every day more and more typical desktop applications take a new home in the web.

Wrong. The web is resource-driven. Desktop applications are event-driven. Web is not a desktop application. Even web applications are not desktop applications. Take some REST and think about it again. Meeeec! Wrong. The web is resource-driven. Desktop applications are event-driven. Web is not a desktop application.

But it's still very usable with IE! :) I forgot to mention this - the only bummer with Flapjax is that some of its functionality doesn’t work with Internet Explorer.

When I discovered functional reactive programming, I immediately fell in love with it, because I only had to declare relationships between objects without having to handle events explicitly. Flapjax (http://flapjax-lang.org) is an awesome Javascript library which implements functional reactive programming techniques. I'm curious to know what you think of that paradigm.

The capability of firing custom events has nothing to do with that :) Nice writeup, btw. Ahem, JavaScript supports the concept of “mixins” natively, just by having a prototype-based object model.
