Newswall is a tool to display feeds and e-mails. Just like on a “news wall” all messages – sorted by date and time – show up in small blocks, if possible together with an image.
That way it is easy to find the most important and interesting news and then have a closer look at these. So it is sort of a feed reader mixed with an e-mail viewer having the look of an image gallery.
To install the script you need a webserver with PHP (tested with Apache2 and PHP 5.2.3), there’s no need for a database. It has been tested on Firefox 3, Safari 4, IE 8 and Chrome.
Requirements: PHP

Close Pixelate is inspired by American portrait painter Chuck Close, this script converts an image into a pixelated version using an HTML5 canvas element. It’s basically a simple demo for canvas’ imageData functionality.
The function accepts an array of objects. Each object holds a set of options (resolution, shape, size, offset and alpha).

Would you like to Make a ‘View Source’ Button on your website? Click it, and you see the entire source code for the page you are looking at. It’s not a popup or a new tab, it just shows the source right there on the page. It works on pretty much all modern browsers, as long as it supports CSS3 :target. Breaks in IE 8 and down, but OK in IE 9.
Requirements: jQuery Framework
