Thanks for sharing. Since youtube is blocked in China(mainland), I suggest using video service like Youku and Tudou, which should support high quality video, too.
Since I've been working in an angel investment company in China, after dealing with a lot of startupers, I found most of them haven't realized how big huge potential promption value video.
Thanks for the info. We have tried Youku and Tudou on https://railscats-china.com but the embedding quality is bad. Will see whether there are plus account on those services.
I see the idea:
1) Write htmls (with some rules, e.g. add '.actionable' class)
2) Library turn them to js codes.
Benefits:
1) Write zero js codes.
2) Make basic and repetitive functionalities eaiser.
But, just wondering, why don't you wrap codes which deal with basic and repetitive functionalities into js functions then reuse them, but write a library to turn htmls codes to js codes?
My question is, html has its job and js has its, too. Is it a good idea to mix them?
It's a good question. I don't think I'll have an informed opinion until we've experienced what it's like to work in this way for a while.
But:
- Joseph Perla's suggestions are usually good
- It just feels better to me... Maybe because it's easier to auto-generate html (e.g. from a Django template). Maybe because now many of our pages won't need any javascript. Maybe because all the custom logic is in one place rather than spread over the html and the javascript. Maybe because writing javascript is harder than html :)
For me, reading rss is like reading newspapers or books: Better contents polished for readers, but less interactions(with authors or others readers).
On the other hand, reading facebook status or tweets is like listening or chatting with friends. Contents are impromptu and often out of context. However, it's much easier to interact.
