I’ve been working on a blog post about using classes and pub/sub for structuring jQuery applications, and I had in mind a pretty simple demo app [...]
I’ve been doing a lot of work lately with a client who’s using just the controller portion of JavaScriptMVC.

If you’re interested, definitely check the magazine out — it’s only five bucks, and there are some other great articles in there this [...]
I’m just back from the inaugural North Carolina jQuery Camp at Viget Labs in Durham, N.C., and a couple of people have asked how it went, so I thought I’d write a quick post. I had a whim a few weeks ago to organize the camp; I envisioned an unstructured day where fellow jQuery developers [...]
