@cromwellian
You (probably) shouldn’t load the scripts in the HEAD of the document…
Check up the YSlow rules if you don’t believe me … ;)

What’s easy to lockup? The showcase? Are you using IE? The showcase wasn’t supposed to be live yet. It’s a debug build that loads up vast amounts of JS, so it wouldn’t surprise me if you got a slow script warning. I have to recompile it for production, as well as make the sample datasets (some very large JSON files with 20k points) load on demand instead of load everything in the HEAD.

I’ll post a notice on my blog when the showcase goes live.

Still very buggy and easy to lock up.

>>Yikes, a 1.6 rating! Either Ajaxians really don’t like GWT or canvas charting, or something is amiss.

Well, considering this morning the story stopped in the middle of the second sentence, I’m not surprised.

@MichaelThompson – agreed. Replace the current, easy CAPTCHA with more difficult developer aimed puzzles, almost like a riddle.

@cromwellian – I think its because of the layout problem :) (which looks fine to me so it must be fixed)
.
As for me, I think its totally bad ass.

Yikes, a 1.6 rating! Either Ajaxians really don’t like GWT or canvas charting, or something is amiss.

I this some sort of test? I sort of like the idea of a web development site forcing developers to use their tools to read it.

I think this should be reposted to get a clearer vote ranking.

Since when do we need to read Ajaxian with firebug to read all the content???

It’s a missing double quote in an anchor tag. I’m sure it will be fixed soon.
