    Precious little Auntie has this article[^] on Rio's statue. It's not the statue itself that impressed me but also the tricks the website uses to navigate it. In particular the bit where scrolling up and down reveals and hides the lightning and interior of the statue. I've never seen that effect before. I found it quite clever.

    If there is one thing more dangerous than getting between a bear and her cubs it's getting between my wife and her chocolate.

      It's called a "Parallax" effect. Simple to implement with jQuery, for instance. Example of what you can do with that effect: Clickety[^]

          I've seen a similar effect where mousing left/right over an image swaps between two versions used for the last few years to show before/after images; typically when a disaster strikes somewhere.

          Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies. -- Sarah Hoyt

            Once again, easily implementable using jQuery: Clickety[^]

              That goes without saying. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: If someone wanted to repwhore on QA, they could answer 99% of webdev questions correctly (but uselessly) with a bot that posted "Use JQuery." as an answer.

                I normally don't do that, but I've seen the "Parallax" and "before/after" jQuery plugins lately and it was mostly to give a concrete example of what you two were talking about.

                  I was just snarking about how client side web development and jquery have became almost equivalent over the last few years.
