Snippit: Better Animation Class 10:41 am
Bernie’s Better Animation Class — This looks really, really awesome, I’m going to have to find an excuse to use it somewhere. (via Snook)
I eat food. I listen to music. I sleep. Sometimes. I drink lots of coffee. I make pretty pictures. I talk to people. I believe in things. I write stuff. I take photographs. I have a laughing addiction. I am human.

Yeah, the animation class looks neat. Why would I use it instead of Scriptaculous? Is it lighter (file size)?
I’m guessing it’s about half the size of Script.aculo.us’s effects.js, and it has a very different approach to effects.
Whereas script.aculo.us gives you ready-made effects like Effects.BlindDown(), this actually lets you apply modifications to the CSS and it will do all the transitions between them for you as shown in The Killer Feature.
