jquery.watermark.js
Posted: Sep 11, 2009, Tags: javascript jquery plugin watermark input ui dom forms
I recently had to watermark some input areas (meaning, they have default text until they're focused).

Lots of unnecessary bits, seems limited to text input tags, creates unnecessary DOM elements.. and even seems to require the elements to have id attributes.
So here's my quick solution.

Social Networkage
I have profiles of most of the decent social networks, and a lot of the more obscure start-up / beta networks. Since I know very few people on the other networks, and very few people even use them anywy... I've only listed the more popular ones here.
