Free DOM or Freedom, (Free Document Object Model) is a web development technique used for creating event driven web applications. FreeDOM is designed to overcome the limitations of stateless HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) transmissions. It offers a new concept for creating binary persistent connections, allowing client and server to utilize memory and resources efficiently while communicating across TCP.

Freedom is designed to replace Ajax (Asynchronous Javascript and XML) by allowing async bidirectional event driven communication to the browser DOM (Document Object Model). Using the techniques will allow you to create webpages that act more like true software applications, increasing user interaction and usability.

FreeDOM uses common programming with Javascript and Flash to create a technique that is widely supported across many platforms including future web technologies to be released.
