I’ve had the idea for a countdown timer for a while now. So the last couple of weeks I’ve been plugging away at one. I have sorted out some interesting issues with it. Basically keeping time with Javascript is a pain but I think I’ve solved it. Here...

I want to share with you some of the pain of UI development today. Before CSS3 setting an elements background opacity without affecting the content of that element’s opacity was a real pain. If you set the opacity of the element, then all the children of that...

Well, I got slack last week (personally I blame it on the blog being down for a couple of days) and I didn’t post this plugin as I said I would. Here it is, I’ve got it up on Github and posted a demo page right here. I love this plugin, it’s very...
