I am quite impressed with the speed of Chrome…I really want to see where this beta goes. There are some bugs that I would like to see addressed, features I’d like to see added.
I would love to see Firefox adapt these Javascript enhancements. The speed of AJAX-style calls is absolutely amazing. [...]
Traversing the display list in AS3 is so tedious. I wish I could use jQuery/CSS/XSLT style selectors:
$(’stage movie button’).addChild(child);
jQuery has spoiled me with easy DOM traversal. Instead, we have to do this:
stage.getChildAt(3).getChildAt(12).addChild(child);
Edit: It looks like someone has ported the $-style traversing to AS3. Finally!
So, I made curry tonight, and it gave me a really good idea:
What options does a non-English speaking user have when visiting an English-only website?
My server logs tell me they use Babelfish.
The problem with Babelfish (or any net-translator) is that it breaks the website. It pushes it through a Find-and-Replace dictionary of terms that completely [...]
Typographical widows, that is. Learning jQuery (an excellent blog, even for the power users) had a wonderful post on how to use jQuery to append widows.
(If you didn’t take a print class in high school, a widow is a word that ends on the next line likethis.
This is a print master’s nightmare and a typographical [...]
Current Javascript solutions for LightBoxes are kind of cumbersome, bloated, and CPU-intense.
Unsatisfied with the current state of LightBoxing, I developed a pure, organic, CSS-powered LightBox. Absolutely zero javascript. All of this under 1kb.

The core of Multi-state CSS is the :target pseudo class. When a user clicks a page-anchor the [...]
This is my ill-fated business card for Jaguar Design…the company that I’m leaving next week for a better-paid position in San Francisco.
Jaguar is a really small company, so my ability to wear many different hats was indispensable. One day I would be their print master, then I was their web master…so we decided my utility [...]
It’s a Flash Embedded device for $180.
Touch screen, accelerometer, microphone, speakers, light sensor, wifi, leather panels…mmm…
Anything I make in Flash I can put on this baby as a fun new toy. Like an alarm clock that streams music from my web server, or a FAP browser that I’m pretty sure only I would use.
I’m considering replacing the current paginated results when you browse with this FAP Forever style of browsing.
Thoughts?

My Apollo/Flex mass upload tool was taking too long to code, so I sat down and made this simple mass upload tool for FAP.
The tool I’m working on in Apollo/Flex will let you select an entire folder and upload that to FAP. Until then, please enjoy Mass FAPloader.
One part breadcrumb trail, one part FAP.
FAP Trail starts with a page of random works. By clicking on works that you like it learns and offers works that you might be more interested in. Eventually you will recieve a gallery of works that accurately reflects your tastes in art.
This was built using fAPI, the open [...]
