Must have JavaScript library.

July 24th, 2010, posted in Web news, website design / hosting

One of my favourite websites, being a web developer, is www.bbc.co.uk as it is beautifully designed has rich animation and passes w3c validation. I have yet to find another website that does all this. This interaction is powered by a powerful JavaScript library called BBC glow. The BBC have released this library for free so take a look and be amazed at:
