AJAX does NOT ruin SEO if used correctly. A good example of Ajax being used in the correct manner is the quick reply feature on this forum. A bad example of Ajax is a plain HTML page that uses Ajax to grab all its content.

See, this forum uses PHP to manage content and just prints out plain old, good, HTML. It also uses Ajax, but not for printing content to the screen, only for adding content to the MySQL database. The Ajax doesn't get in the way of the page's content.

I hope that wasn't too confusing.
