Twitter originally had AJAX loading for updates but the feature was removed early on as a means to reduce load on the service. It will certainly be a welcome feature to have again, I wonder though if the frequency of call required for AJAX calls will be acceptable for use by apps using the API? It's kind of like the difference between using push email and regular pop email!

From what I have seen yes, in the past two weeks maybe a little less they have been. It has been updating your tweets as well as having a more button at the bottom that is ajax driven and pulls latest tweets.

I hope it is something they do as I have liked it when on the main page. But I have been using twitterfox as of recent and love it.

I've been using the Autopagerize greasemonkey script for some time and that basically provides same functionality on twitter and most other pages. You might like it too.
