Web dev types: Check how Jarred Bishop handles the backgrounds for his image/video posts to his tumblr. It’s so slick, you guys. I did a legitimate, full-on double take when I first scrolled onto it, followed immediately by a “did he just do that?!”
I spend a fair amount of time keeping with web design stuff, so not many things surprise me, but that sure did. Simple, clever, eye-catching. Awesome!
“Use it to find the photography you like using the simple idea that people whose work you like, probably like stuff you’ll like. You start with a set of pictures — if you authenticate, it’ll use 20 of your last 100 favorites — otherwise it’ll start with somebody’s favorites. Click any picture to load more.” Great idea, works beautifully. (via Jarred Bishop)
Daaaaaang. This one is addictive. Definitely worth checking out. Pulls up some NSFW images occasionally, so watch out for that if you need to.
I can’t bring myself to close this website. It’s been sitting open on my computer all morning, and the combination of slow-motion underwater video and ambient music is so beautiful and so hypnotic I can’t turn it off.
