Jonathan Neal - Ben Alman Dot Com

By "Cowboy" Ben Alman on January 27, 2010 8:48 AM |

I never really expected to categorize a post as both “code” and “music,” but you know those “there’s an app for that” iPhone commercials? Well, apparently, “there’s a Ben Alman jQuery plugin for that.”

Ben Alman Dot Com

After I had gone to sleep last night, Jonathan Neal, author of the jQuery SWFObject plugin, jQuery sIFR plugin, CMS.txt and the creator of the yayQuery podcast theme song posted a new track into IRC…

Here’s the chat excerpt:

 <JonathanNeal> who was talkin' to me about making a "Ben Alman has a jQuery plugin for that" song?

 <jaubourg> AND cats
 <miketaylr> yes, AAND
 <headcold> no, how dare you. nothing further is required
 <jaubourg> that way you could put the youtube video in any post that requires it :P
 <jaubourg> what better than a benalman.com ad video answer?
 <headcold> ben is going to wee himself

I’m a little sad that I missed all the fun in IRC last night, but I was busy trying to keep two rambunctious kittens off my pillow. And just for the record, I didn’t wee myself. But it was pretty damn close.
