I'd like to write some add-ins to check ham radio licenses, there's a site with
an API that can be called with the callsign to return JSON I'd like to parse
and return to the user.  There's another one that returns APRS data also for
ham radio.  Also there are a few News sites that return news from multiple
sourcews.  Though about writing a news app people could use to subscribe to
news from various sites. Just have a few ideas with stuff like this I'd like to
try and wrap into sync as doors or something else.

The mozilla.org developer site does mention XMLHttpRequest which I believe
handles this so hopefuly this is the right path?

I have, it's a great site and resources!  I'm just trying to get my toolbelt in
order before starting to build stuff.  I've been getting more into Javascript
at work, so I really want to get into it here to.

Thanks again for your help.
