dbieber··on HTML5 Game Development course starts tomorrow
Really excited for this course, but the start date is February 5. Can't wait.
dbieber··on Do you take online courses?
Here's a direct link to the form https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dEFYRE1...

And of course I'd love to hear additional thoughts in these HN comments.

There's probably a way for me to not collapse on a double-click-and-drag. But you should consider switching over to single-click-and-drag! Saves loads of clicks over the course of a year!

That looks really nice. And thanks for the link to http://www.telescopictext.com/ another neat implementation of a similar concept.

Neat. I like what you did with the mouseovers. There's definitely a lot you can do with simple scripts like this, especially if you craft each post individually.

I was going for something that could be quickly reused without much thought. I'll have to see if my script lives up to that as I continue blogging.

One thing I was going for is being able to type the post quickly without having to think much about HTML. <p id="x"> and <p id="_x"> is really the shortest I could get it. Maybe you could spell out your two div idea in a bit more detail for me- I don't know exactly what you have in mind.

I agree, and I think I was suggesting the wrong use case at first.

In a typical blog post, the summaries shouldn't be necessary. A good use case for Collapsible Blogging is when you are listing multiple items or events, and the reader may only be interested in reading about one or two. Then the reader can choose to expand just those. May be better as Expandable Blogging rather than Collapsible Blogging.

I'm going to try it out this way and see what people think.

That's why you should never test in production. Fixed.
