JavaScript Tool: Nifty Corners Cube(tm)

The first JavaScript tool I want to mention is Nifty Corners Cube by Alessandro Fulciniti.  This is a great little utility for rounding the corners on your html elements without using time consuming images and it is very simple to use.

Sidetracked By FLEX

I’m still going to do research/comparison on JavaScript libraries, but I am sidetracked by the amazing possibilities offered by Adobe(tm) FLEX. The UI is beautiful, the cross-browser/platform advantages speak for themselves, and the simplicity of writing a FLEX application sells me on it.

This just brings me to the same question that seems to haunt me: “With so many amazing technologies, how is a boy to choose?”

Many JavaScript Libraries

So I found I new JavaScript library. Maybe you’ve heard of it. EXT JS. I have been using PrototypeJs and the Script.aculo.us library for a little while, but just now came across this new library. I have only briefly looked at EXT JS, namely their desktop,which , though slow and a little bug prone, looks very good. The things we can do with the web are limitless and the more we stretch ourselves by attempting new things the better.

So I think everyone knows that there is a plethora of tools at the disposale of the web developer. How then do we decide which are the right tools for us? I think I will explore the different tools I have come across, write about them, and let whomever decides to read comment. So stay tuned.
