Two stories today from Ajaxian (Ajaxian.com) caught my eye and made me curious:
CNN Beta Site: http://ajaxian.com/archives/cnn-beta-site Apple Revamps Its Website http://ajaxian.com/archives/apple-revamps-its-website In both cases, Apple and CNN have gone with Prototype and Scriptaculous. I should say up front I'm a big fan of jQuery and Interface, but I'm wondering why two big sites like this would adopt Prototype when other high-profile sites like Technorati have adopted jQuery. Are there any standard arguments for Prototype that I don't know about? Or is it simply a matter of preference and that's all? Just curious.
