Inspired: Javascript & jQuery Love

Remember the “inspired” blog posts series I started back in November? Well, let’s keep playing that game and today’s topic is jQuery and Javascript. The things you can do with javascript today are pretty impressive and sometimes unbelievable. Starting from simple AJAX calls and ending up with complete rich user interfaces with sweet animation (poke Facebook for instance).

Who Needs Flash When You Have Javascript?

You know I browse the web a lot – StumbleUpon, Digg, Twitter, etc. I go through tonnes of content, so today I made a short list of a few interesting jQuery and Javascript links that made my day! For rookies and for pros, check them out (ordered randomly):

• 23 Best jQuery Facebook Style Plugins
• Process XML in the browser using jQuery
• Dynamically Create Charts Using jQuery Flot and Google Analytics
• jQuery Sticky Tooltip Script
• Making a Cool Spotlight Effect with jQuery
• How To Create Simple, Stylish and Swappable Image Captions
• Creating a Simple Photo Tagging System
• Beautiful Slide Out Navigation: A CSS and jQuery Tutorial
• iPhone Scrolling Experience in Your Browser with jQuery Plugin

Now you tell me – who needs Flash when you have Javascript? ;) Oh and by the way, if you’ve anything to add to the list (preferably articles published in late 2009) feel free to suggest via comments. If you’re looking for even more jQuery love, follow the real-time search results for the #jQuery tag on Twitter. Cheers!
