Incorrect headline, Reddit already utilises CSS sprites: http://www.reddit.com/static/sprite.png?v=0ec7f79c9f54824fdef1fe36aef6ad27 http://www.reddit.com/static/sprite.png?v=0ec7f79c9f54824fde... Headline should be: "John Resig's CSS optimization for Reddit's subreddit of fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuu (more than 6x improvement)"
