I can confirm my loading time went from 25 seconds to 15 seconds on Teambox, our fairly large Rails 3 app. Kudos!

The side effect of this is that, overall, your "organic" traffic might seem to perform worse vs your Adwords campaigns, since people looking for images are usually lower quality visitors. I wonder if this is just a coincidence.

Right, the market is full of point solutions that keep focusing in only one aspect of the communication problem. Sort of like UNIX command line tools: great at doing one thing, but loosely coupled with other apps you use. Yammer is great at

What a great find! My solution is much more limited but also very lightweight: only textareas, only two scenarios (click or load on demand)

I made this for my own project (which uses all those), but you have a point. I just removed the Modernizr dependency. I kept jQuery 1.7. I kept underscore.js for the great _.debounce function.

Update (I'm the author). This is the feature I finally implemented: https://gist.github.com/1733598 It listens to see if the user scrolled recently and navigated away without clicking, and then explains her what happened and how to avoid

I just posted an update to the post with the screen we're showing (only once) to "teach how to disable this". I believe that's the best compromise: Keeping the scroll behavior, but teaching you how to change it. http://cl.ly/1R0T1Z1n2y160C

My advice: take backbone's code and read it a couple times as you'd read a science book. Get to understand every function and how it ties into the rest of the framework. Most writers read a lot more than they write. Programmers could learn

http://trello.com and http://teambox.com (beta at http://beta.teambox.com ) have a common ancestor: http://www.pivotaltracker.com That was the first widely adopted kanban tool for developers that I know about
