You probably reinvented some wheels... Did you use just direct actions or component actions?

Wonder's Ajax also integrates component actions, and to me that makes using ajax more natural, easier, more fun than using direct actions.

It certainly does but there's a performance hit with component actions as it needs to re-evaluate the whole page, conditionals and all. So it depends how complex your page is as to whether this is ultimately a good thing. As always, YMMV.

When I started doing ajax with WebObjects I was using direct actions. Then eventually wrote my own framework to integrate component actions. Then I discovered Wonder's Ajax. Then I saw it in action at WOWODC08. Then as I started digging more and more I realized I was reinventing the wheel. And a lot of stuff I wanted to add to my own framework was already in Wonder's Ajax. So instead of reinventing the wheel I decided to start using Wonder and ditch my stuff. Wonder's Ajax is more complete, has undergone more testing and more uses, it is more versatile and has more developers using it and making it better.

Sure .. we're using part Ajax framework, part custom as they wanted jquery etc...
