Please drop the "s around everything. The picture being there and the context forces me to associate it with a person and not the site, the "s are redundant. Especially in comments. Also scrolling is insanely laggy for me, I have no idea why, but I assume it's all the JS.
Just pushed a new build that removes the quotes - that was one of those things that looks better on a mockup than it does in production.
As for the scrolling issue, it could either be the Twitter @Anywhere hovercards or the background (used some CSS hacks to make it scale with the window when you resize) - could you let me know what browser you are using?
Google chrome, version 10.0.648.151 which chrome tells me is up to date. My operating system is Windows 7 and I have about 2.1GB RAM free out of 6GB total and CPU usage is at ~1%. I don't get the same lag in Firefox 4.
Ah, thanks for that key detail about Firefox - that tells me that the scrolling background might be the issue since it does some browser-specific stuff in order to resize with the window.
That's odd - I tested it in Chrome on Windows 7 on a machine with similar specs and I don't have that issue. I'll do some digging around and see if there's something funky with that block of CSS or my JS
I'm having similar lag issues when scrolling up and down the home page with latest Chrome on Ubuntu 10.10. Firefox 3.6 is fine.
Good stuff, indeed. I have always a place to go to just discuss ideas with other creative people. I've used Twitter to do something similar, mentioning Twitter handles of those who would could use the idea I had in mind.
