Per the request of Mark (and many others) there is now an official jQuery mailing list. I did some simple testing to make sure that it worked properly, and it seems to be fairing well, so far. Let me know if you spot any bugs signing up or posting messages. Feel free to keep questions […]

I’ve just finished writing up some more documentation, to help everyone who’s learning how to use jQuery. I’d like to thank Bruno for helping me sort out all the Prototype/jQuery weirdness and Derek for looking at the selector differences.

I’ve been bit by the JSON bug. For a long time now, I’ve simply shrugged it off as ‘Why not just use XML, it’s parsable by most languages anyway.’ However, once I started playing around with the del.icio.us JSON interface, then the Google Homepage API, and finally with the new Yahoo!

This script is capable of taking an RSS (or Atom) feed and converting it into a valid JSON object. I currently cache feed requests once per hour, to save on bandwidth – so keep that in mind when developing an application. You can use the interface that I have setup, below, or you can download […]
