Very well written! (Unfortunately I don't know if you look amazing)

Cappuccino stays open source.

Am I the only one seeing this?

GitHub may be one reason.

Maybe less but still important IMHO is that it's far more pronounceable than e.g. SVN. That could help build the hype.

Don't use it if you rely on npm. It doesn't work yet.

I hope you didn't write this blog post because you got stuck. Besides that great read! I think every coder knows this special time when you can't boot up your mind because you're afraid of crashing somewhere.

Yeah I think you definetely have to get your fingers on it for knowing if it makes sense or not. Visually it is winning!

Wow, this looks really awesome! It's like the Twitter iPad app but a step further. I wonder if it's also usable besides the "cool looking".

From the technical aspect this is well done because it shows the power of CSS. From a designer's point of view it is quite far from perfect. The icons look weird and the active state looks quite uninspired with only showing an inner shadow. We shouldn't over hype such things just because "there are no graphics used". The user doesn't care if there are graphics used or not. Also the user won't recognize a difference in loading time because the icons wouldn't weight many bytes.

I am using Simfy in Germany. Pretty much the same except for the crappy iPhone app.

Mobile safari is kinda freaking out if you watch this on an iPad.

That's true but don't forget that the iPhone is the world's most used digital camera.

I thought one goal of using CSS3 is to have super performant animations.

What's the point of having animated glowing forms if they swallow 50% of the machine's cpu?
