For those of you that don't know, Safari is Mac's browser, and if features cutting edge technology, just like FireFox 2 and Internet Explorer 7, but unlike them it feature's Mac's "branding". For Safari, that means the clear, "plastic" button renderings for form elements, and the clear and blue plastic looking scroll bars.
I've previously been of the mind that these features were kind of gimmicky, I mean making the buttons look different doesn't really make the system any better, just different. Besides that, as a designer, it means I loose control over what my buttons look like, at least to a certain extent... but after using S3, I'm hooked. I like the look of them.
Still not buying a Mac though.
Ext JS might just be the most amazing thing I've ever seen inside of a browser... Check out the "Learn" section and go to Demos... its amazing. This is what fuels the stock market info on http://www.djindexes.com/.
The Pig Latin translator is down for a bit... I'm trying to test out scaffolding in Model Glue and I'm breaking mappings trying to get the dang thing to work. *sigh*
Ok, so I finished my first application in Model Glue: Pig Latin Translator.
Yes its the QuickStart example.
Yes its lame.
I'm still proud.
