Discovered your http://underthesite.com. I think it's a great & DRY way for those who want to tell users what technologies are used.


Really nice, the only thing I thought is that it might be nice to "collapse" text back up into the keyboards which cascade them down?

Really like the "You can see everything" pop up at the bottom after 7 clicks - I didn't use it, but it was nice to have the option


Nice work! I'd had this idea for my personal pages, too, specifically for my CV/Resume! Would love to see a blog post describing how you've done it (I know the code is there, but a discussion of it would be informative).


The technology is cool and it works like a charm. However, the approach of using "mystery meat" navigation for an entire website is pretty tedious for this visitor.


This is fantastic - I loved the ant simulation!

It was a bit cryptic to get some of the content; perhaps you could have an alternative and more straight forward navigation system.


It gets annoying pretty quickly but the idea is nice.


I thought that was pretty cool up until I tried to hit the back button. It doesn't diminish the coolness, but it'd be a good thing to fix.

(Also Go Jackets!)


I'm torn- it'd be fairly easy to use pushState to add history, but it'd also be very annoying for the site to add 100s of history pages to your browser. Thoughts?


Cute and incredibly memorable! It definitely made me 10x more interested in who you are and what you do :)



Presumably why he credits it for the inspiration


I would like to know how that effects affect SEO.


dude I love it :D. is the javascript you're using for the text an in-house solution or from a plugin?


In-house, fairly straightforward, plus jQuery.


I'd love comments and suggestions!
