But for other smaller parts to speed up the process of sign-ups etc. it should be good. Also note that unless the results are something that needs to be processed by a complicated PHP or ASP code that taps into your database etc, it's often easier to preload everything and use simple Javascript to handle the content. I see Ajax as basically a steroided version of Javascript, with much more capacity for database interaction!
