Awesome hardware accelerated slider transform kit.
A brilliant article on generated pseudorandomly tiled backgrounds with simple CSS3 and a few carefully chosen images.
Rack is probably the coolest web-development thing to come out of the Ruby community in the 5-ish years I’ve been paying attention. I’m continually impressed with projects like this :).
Local Ann Arbor band My Dear Disco has changed their name to Ella Riot (read more about it here), and this is their first new song/video under that name. It’s a great song, a crazy video (shades of OKGo), and has some fun shots of downtown A2.
These folks are my neighbors, kitty-corner across the street. I wish I knew them better than I do, since they’re pretty damn good.
First, from Harry Roberts, a clean way to do that loverly ribbon thing that has been so popular the last few years. Uses images, but the markup is muy simple. Also links to a pure-html+css way of accomplishing same but involves a lot of HTML5 wrappage.
Second, from Nicholas Gallagher, we have an overview of creating different, subtle effects with drop shadows, from curled corners to single horizontal folds.
Last, from Dustin Cartwright, we have a little toy keyboard. It’s not useful, but it sure is cool.
Thanks, fellas!
Easy, clean plugin that allows you to trigger events based on the user’s scrolling activity on your page. Very nice.
I am a huge fan of the increased usability of the documents curated by our various standards groups. Nice work, Ben Schwartz!
This is pretty impressive work, and will open the doors to all kinds of folks to play with creating interactive online maps. Very nice. It’s a bit of a chore to install right now, but it’s still “in progress”. (Oh, and it is built on nodejs. Nice.)
