A side question, which seems worth asking as long as this is floating at the top of HN ...
We try to rotate in fresh projects into the list of Backbone apps on the homepage:
http://backbonejs.org/#examples http://backbonejs.org/#examples
... but there are often many more interesting things out there in the wild than we're necessarily aware of -- for example: Rdio, the new GoogleArtProject.com, and Pitchfork.com. Are you currently working on a fun Backbone app, or have you seen one recently that we might not have heard about?
- sgrove 15y agohttp://kandan.me http://kandan.me is a backbone app, as well as a few others we've developed at Bushido so far.
- nonrecursive 15y agohttp://openhercules.com http://openhercules.com is a backbone app
- jbigelow76 15y agoOff topic but I love your explanation of the openhercules name. Edit: just played with the sample list and the keyboard interaction is pretty impressive too. Nice work.

- mcdoh 15y agoI wrote http://www.mineconics.net http://www.mineconics.net using Backbone, it solved my jQuery spaghetti and reduced my LoC by about 25%, it made it easier to add new features as well. Thanks for Backbone!

- mcsheffrey 15y agoHow can you tell that Pitchfork.com is using backbone?
- dclowd9901 15y agohttp://nosweaters.com http://nosweaters.com is beginning to incorporate Backbone into its setup (currently utilized in user /home feed and idea suggestion path), and my personal project site, http://showhopping.com http://showhopping.com is moving from its spaghetti crufty mess to a completely BB/Require setup.
- bryanh 15y agoNot a lick of HTML is rendered by our backend in the 1.0 version of Zapier. It's all Backbone.js! We even have a (unusual?) nested view pattern that really helps us segment complicated logic. Our co-founder (mikeknoop on HN) even did a talk on Backbone at our local meetup. Maybe Google alerts will bring him here and he'll finally get around to posting it... ;-)
