Re: [OT] The 'Jakarta' of Javascript?

2005-08-05 Thread Laurie Harper
I'll have to have a dig around on there. I find sites like that tend to 
have an overwhelming amount of trivial or just plain annoying scripts (I 
*hate* sites that have a little bumble bee chasing my mouse around the page 
;-) rather than full-on UI components, but having done very little with 
Javascript in the past I haven't developed good filtering skills for 
digging out the good stuff yet.


Thanks for the link,

I don't recall ever actually using anything from that site, I tend to 
write all my own client-side stuff, but I've very definitely gotten 
inspiration from some of the stuff there. :)

What are your favourite sources for this kind of thing? Do you have 
any particularly neat examples nestled amongst your bookmarks?

I agree with your general impression of sites like that... and, DD has
it's share of gee whiz, that's neat but oh so annoying! content too...
but when you find the good stuff it really tends to be *very* good.
