As Chu Yeow pointed out, Singapore does have Ajaxified products.
Now I’m knocking myself hard on the head for not having found Bezurk earlier. Planning for my trip to Austin has been a terrible user experience on Zuji. There have been many times my search went on forever, only to provide no results.
Bezurk’s use of Ajax is appropriate rather than gratuitous. A steady stream of information is always preferable to having to wait for the entire chunk. Bezurk is still in beta at the moment, but from what we can see, the response times are great. We’ll have to reevaluate once they get the flights, cars and packages sections rolling along.
Adrian Lee gives a very detailed account of the Bezurk demo at the Entrepreneur 27 event held at NUS.
The guys at Bezurk might want to take note of this: I kept typing in Berzurk, because that’s closer phonetically.

Heh. I’ve recently spotted recruiting ads in NUS for ajax developers.
the advertisments were phrased rather badly though. very low class. =X

I went for the e27 thing at NUS & i think Bezurk rocks. The speed is just amazing. I really feel the Bezurk team is extremely talented.

Errm… this portal was created by a team of foreign talent. Maybe a few have Singapore PRs. Berzurk is still struggling, and in short, Singapore still has not produced anything significant.
