Wow, I could stare at that for minutes. Something's going to happen soon, I swear.
look, crap like this belongs on digg.
Yikes, that surprises me. Here's why I think it belongs here: it's a simple web page that does one thing well and solves a problem that at least some of us have. I'm talking about programmers who make web apps and aren't good at graphics. Okay, that at least one of us has. :)
Perhaps my comment was a little harsh. I just don't want news.y to devolve into the type of neato-esque conglomeration that digg is. (I saw this on digg like 2 years ago). Thats all.
I disagree. I was working on some Ajax stuff and I really needed a spinner. This is useful.
The most impressive bit is their dropdown with all the moving animations.
i thought the popup color picker was pretty cool too
gmail caches everything like crazy. when the page loads, just start caching everything that the user might want to click on, and you can avoid the web 2.0 version of dancing frogs.
Not sure I follow. Could you explain in more detail?
