Building a jQuery powered Tag Cloud
A tag cloud is a great way of showing visitors to your blog the main topics of interest that are available. In this tutorial you'll see how easy it is to build a basic tag cloud which retrieves the tags to display as part of an AJAX request directly after page load. It is easy to resize each tag depending on its frequency using a sensible range of text sizes.

A Better Pagination
It is only a little script that can turn your ugly looking page numbers into a nice looking slider. MooTools does most of the work and the script only contains a little fix for the slider. Included is an example in PHP to see how you can integrate this script.

Endless Pageless
Using Ajax we can dynamically fetch more results and append them to the bottom of the page, as the user approaches the end of the content they have already read. This pattern removes the need for pagination, feeding your customer as much data as they care to read in a subtle, non-intrusive way. Tested on FF 1.5, IE 6.0, Safari 2.0.4.
