My hat is off to Google; the progress they have made with Chrome (in terms of both marketshare and features/performance) in just 3 years is remarkable. Chrome has greatly increased my enjoyment of the web as both a user and developer.

My understanding (and the article reflects this) is that the "module pattern" generally refers to a function that is executed immediately after definition; ie: var module = (function() { ... })(). I'm guessing you're referring to Crockford'

Very true, there seems to be a cargo-cult mentality that the mere presence of "design patterns" improves the quality of your code automatically. As I see it, the main benefit of design patterns is that they give developers a common vocabula

I would love it if the iPad met my needs, but I find extended reading difficult on backlit LCDs.

Interesting, thanks for the heads up. I'm going to wait for a device with a single, big screen though.
