I am a big fan of using custom events where it makes sense in applications. I took it too far in the early days of Bespin, but I really enjoy them where they make sense.
Chris Vanrensburg was talking to me about Virtual DOM events, and when I asked him about them he told me this:
there are not enough juicy real DOM events, and the DOM standards process is slow moving. It's long been a bone of contention that the

Alex Russell has pontificated on the notion that View Source is not only good and important, but that it may be under attack.
Do you feel that view source added to the popularity of the Web? or that it was just a nice to have that is neither here nor there? Other technologies have tried to bolt it on (e.g. in Flex you can opt-in to view source) but opt-in to a developer flips a bit of "hmm no I will keep this to my

A dash of animation can spruce up a dull interface. In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to do it the right way with jQuery. A Word From the AuthorAnimation: a concept which often evokes divisive reactions from people. Some swear by its usefulness, whilst others rage at its overuse.

My gut feeling whenever I hear a "we are joining a group" type post from anyone is "thanks for telling us, ping me when you have an implementation".
However, when someone as big as Microsoft blogs about joining the W3C SVG Working Group they are trying to send a signal. Hopefully they will help the process and SVG will proceed nicely and we will see it on more user agents.
But, as a friend just said, I will hold my

Where I live, it’ll be 2010 in six hours. Wow – 2010! And that means, in five years, we’ll be in flying cars where the postal service isn’t as efficient as the weather. (First person who names that movie reference will be sent a web dev book.) As the year comes to a close, I want to take a moment to thank all of you so much. While my job is to edit and create tutorials, I can promise that I
