Smashing Magazine (1379) permalink
Developers and designers are using more and more JavaScript in modern designs. Sometimes this can be a hindrance to the user and take away from the simplicity of the design, and other times it can add greatly to the user’s experience. The key is a) adding the right amount of JavaScript, and b) using the right JavaScript techniques. We have already collected various JavaScript techniques in the past – now it’s time for a new ...Shared by !!blue (9) 7noOna (20) abhin4v (20) acafourek (14) adam (33) Adam Byram (0) Adam Helweh (45) Alex (22) Alexander Feil (10) Alexander13 (76) ali1k (23) Altuğ Orgun (23) Amy (5) Anders (11) André Lamelas (0) andré.friedrichs (38) angol (53) aNTwNHs (77) anupam (0) Arnopeck (2) Art (25) Babak (16) Benjamin (459) BigPru (22) Bramha (20) Brandon Ball (24) BrendoMan (348) Brent the Closet Geek (38) Brian (23) Brian Tanaka (0) Brian Zalewski (15) browneyes (22) Bruno (2) Bruno Campagnolo de Paula (42) brupm (19) btw0 (30) calderas (8) carlback (21) Chandoo (38) Christopher (34) Cléo Morgause (22) craig (0) Danny (0) DAS (7) Dave (10) Dave White (11) Davide Taviani (16) Deborah Petersen (957) Dimitris (15) Dinis Correia (1) Don (15) Donnie Berkholz (19) Doug Stewart (60) Douglas Deleu (2) Eddie Awad (1) ehu4ever (76) Elmer Thomas (177) elsterama (45) Emanuel Dias (9) Emiliano (23) Erik (51) Ernst-Jan (7) esesti (7) etng (29) expertseries (12) Francesco Lodolo (8) Fred Schechter (33) frivmo (12) Galtenbergs (21) GarthDB (13) GaryK (21) Ghedin (6) gisc (16) Gommit (14) Grant Mead (6) green (4) Gregor (21) Gregory Go (22) gsherman (14) hadrien (28) Hakicoma (197) Hayk (18) HIncubus (7) History of Blogging (146) hronix (11) Htoo Tay Zar (5) Huacn Lee (25) iHao (10) Ilias (0) indigo (21) james young (10) Jamie Lawrence (4) Javed (151) Jeff Rivers (6) jeremi (2) Jesper (27) Johan Martin (16) John (15) John (14) John (35) John Todd (1) Jonathan (13) Ju (19) Jules (6) Justin (3) Kahong (9) kbac70 (1) keith (85) kevan (20) Kevin (15) Kevin (1) koke (6) Kurt Zenisek (12) Lahiru Priyadarshana (11) lapin (27) Lee G.

If you’re not happy with the default skin of Google Chrome, you can download alternative theme files. Go to Chromespot’s themes board and look for something you like; maybe the Firefox theme, a green one, or the simple gray theme called Blurk. Each theme contains a file called “default.dll”, which you need to copy over your original default.dll (I suggest you make a backup of the original first, and also note I’m not sure if ...Shared by Anders (11) AndyDrew (18) focoma (22) Foremire (13) freireag (20) gisc (16) jeremy (3) Jester (6) John MacAdam (21) Jorge (20) Levi Breederland (20) maomao (18) Maxim (1) Mike (5) Panic (38) Peter H (27) SethLevy (17) Stefan (28) Stijn (31) tarman (48) Voyagerfan5761 (23) Wyctim (2) Yu (56)Contribute comment -

You might not feel the need for a decent fixtures solution if you do a lot of mocking/stubbing, but I recently came back from my ...Contribute comment -

These past few weeks have brought forward a few interesting developments in the Ruby database access layer. First, the guys at espace announced Neverblock: a Ruby 1.9 library which makes heavy use Fibers and non-blocking IO (RubyInside and InfoQ have the scoop). And shortly thereafter we saw the announcement of MySQLPlus (also a direct result of work around Neverblock): An enhanced MySQL database driver. With support for async operations and threaded database access. Nice!

[File under respected opposition] David Heinemeier Hansson, Jason Fried’s business partner at 37signals, begs to differ with the notion that Web companies shouldn't charge for their products. In a very entertaining speech (video below), he makes his case: Forget using free to go mass and hope you'll become Facebook (or be bought by them). Instead, he says, focus on a small market and charge money. There are many ways to have a price in web ...Shared by Anders (11) C.K.
