The thing I&#8217;ve been wondering, what is the performance cost when using namespaces? I created a loop that sets a variable 1,000,000 times and records the result. Let&#8217;s test it!

		<description><![CDATA[Recently I&#8217;ve fallen in love with node.js a web server written in JavaScript. Ok it&#8217;s not really a web server, it makes IO functions available to JavaScript code in a completely non-blocking way! What does that mean? It means it&#8217;s incredibly fast.

		<description><![CDATA[What: A plugin for jQuery that makes serializing input elements easy. Once serialized you can send the elements back to the server with AJAX. Why: There is a big problem with jQuery&#8217;s built in $.serialize() method. It only uses the input elements name attribute. In practice I found that the name attribute is rarely used, [...]]]></description>
