Kindle, Nook, Libre Ebook Readers

I’ve been in the market trying to buy an ebook reader.  After holding all of these, I came to the conclusion to not buy any of them. They are either too small to be useful or slow interface or both. Amazon Kindle Review Probably the best of the bunch, it has a nice 3G network, Amazon accessible, use of a memory card to add books, [...]


Single File Javascript Addons

Once again I’m looking to add some fancier UI to my web projects and run into the same problem, most javascript UI elements are a mess of files.
