skinnyScroller
When I was at SXSW, I attended a panel with the fellows responsible for skinnyCorp. They are the Threadless guys who make the cool t-shirts that all those hipster kids are wearing these days.
Hipster t-shirts aside, these guys have written a great little plugin that makes reading long websites like Boing Boing or Engadget MUCH easier. It’s called skinnyScroller and you can get it here:
I am always amazed at the willingness of people to create things to solve their own problems and then share them with the world. I have been bothered many times because of needing to scroll a website, but I never once thought of writing some code to solve that problem. My answer was to get a scrolling mouse, which doesn’t really make things easier for me, just one-handed.
Thanks, guys!
