Ajaxian: Getters and Setters in JavaScript
This may come out a bit harsh, due in part to the late hour. I always find it a bit unfortunate when influential blogs mention powerful concepts like these, though, without a context of when or how they can be put to good use, rather than making code hard

Browservulsel: Blogger backlinks the custom way
How simple and robust it became if one didn't bother with the custom foldable bits Blogger offer for folding and unfolding the backlinks, which I took to doing of my own with what little Blogger offers in scripted provisions for that. I really ought to st

Love your work, Greg, and thanks for the beautiful tutorial; it's a very comfy way into the match indeed. One feature request: <a href="http://www.lysator.liu.se/%7Ejhs/blog/ecmanaut/2005-11-23/fetch_query_tag.txt" rel="nofollow">add an unescape() of the

Philosophy, et cetera: Better Browsing (and Blogging)
ClustrMaps <i>is</i> fun. :-) Here is <a href="http://ecmanaut.blogspot.com/2005/11/clustrmaps-inkblotch-visitor.html">my take</a> on how to do it.
Browservulsel: Blogger edit comments user script
Based on the idea of adding a column to the Blogger editor, I wrote a similar script to show the backlink counts for all your blog entries. It's available at http://www.userscripts.org/scripts/show/2185 and links back to the blog entries with the #links f

Månhus beta - Boka burra
Intressant; jag har just börjat följa Jons blogg, men det här hacket hade jag inte hunnit snava över. Jag förutspår en mycket angenäm framtid för en ambitiösare varisort på BookBurros biblioteksstöd.

Panoramio » Blog Archive » Direct Manipulation
Usable design is also about visually (and indeed texturally, audiably et cetera, as applies) communicating how each interaction device is used; in which manner you interact with it. I'm not sure how a blob on a map would tell you it's draggable, but it ou
Simpy Instead of Del.icio.us for Categories? - Freshblog
Del.icio.us still seems to hold the technical lead with their JSON feeds, as integration with your own site goes -- if we assume we live in a world where we are tied to only using client side solutions -- Libraryclips post their search form by HTTP post t

Tackar! Tangentbordssnav är så lätt hänt; ingenting att fästa sig vid.

It looks quite lovely. -- One of these days it's a shame not to be in NY. :-]
Comment Blogging
Oh, I didn't think you were; I just reflected that it's still a rather good feature match for being mostly not planned for usage. Somebody hacking a dedicated solution, for instance at the <a href="http://ning.com/" rel="nofollow">Ning playground</a> or s

Snålkoder
Så fånigt. Man kan spekulera i vem fåglarna det där systemet vänder sig till, egentligen; det låter onekligen rätt oanvändbart för de flesta parter.

Evas Dröm - Ian McEwan
Och även när textningen var i synk, var den stundvis rätt bristfällig. Min flickvän (som är översättare) gick i taket när "He is redefining theatre for us", översatts med "Han läser fin teater för oss". :-)<br><br>Jag, som hade slutat läsa oc
Comment Blogging
Like mackinaw above, I too find I have started to add topic tags to comments I post, besides the "mandated" <i>mycomments</i> tag slapped on to all my own comments on external blogs. The "mycomments" tag holds the semantical meaning of tying in the Del.ic
Possible Blogger Image Hack - Freshblog
The downside to doing it at Blogger is of course that they then get smashed about a bit in the JPEG encoding, which is destructive in nature -- to make images smaller. There is no check on whether that actually <i>succeeds</i>, so if you upload a really s

Browservulsel: Custom Blogger comments form (4): spam protection
Okay, now I have played around with this a bit on my own <a href="http://mad-science-lab.blogspot.com/2005/11/mad-scientists-lab.html" rel="nofollow">test page</a>. There are plenty of error sources that could pop up and request further user interaction f
Browservulsel: Custom Blogger comments form (4): spam protection
But after trying out this with IE6 I don't understand which problems you are trying to solve; it works well enough posting with CAPTCHA protection under IE6 too; there are just some visual misfeatures with the textarea and some javascript error message yo
Browservulsel: Custom Blogger comments form (4): spam protection
There is <i>serious</i> magic going on behind the scenes when you post comments to Blogger; I just peered at what goes on net traffic wise (via LiveHTTPHeaders) when Firefox posts one of these, and they certainly don't take the easy route in getting the c
Google Mint?
On closer inspection of the Browservulsel code, it can't be; yours is somewhat more advanced (though minus the CAPTCHA bits). Your own tweaking and playing around? *peers at with some curiosity*<br><br>(The radiobutton "Other" seems to toggle visibility s

Interesting; I've got to play with this. :-)<br><br>Nice inline post form, by the way; made the <a href="http://browservulsel.blogspot.com/2005/09/custom-blogger-comments-form-4-spam.html" rel="nofollow">Browservulsel</a> way, I presume?
