Just to add to the collection - this video covers g_scratchpad, g_form.getReference(), and GlideAjax and compares them as methods of getting server information to the client.

g_scratchpad can be used not only from Server to Client even you can use it for client to client. For example on change of 10 fields, you want to make work notes mandatory, then you need to write on change script for 10 fields, but by using g_scratchpad you can create only 2 client script to handle this scenario. Store JSON object of 10 fields on load and check JSON object with current value on submit.
