atxryan: I enjoyed this WNYC short: Moments http://cstrlr.com/51C

atxryan: @matthewcrist Form masks won’t work as the input fields are free form address fields. Tax info is retrieved. OnBlur is too slow, they say.

Quix is an extensible bookmarklet, that allows you to easily access all your bookmarks and bookmarklets, across all your browsers, while maintaining them in only one spot. All you have to do is remember the shortcut for the bookmarklet, so, basically, it’s like a command line for your browser!

atxryan: Thanks, @getify, @iamnoah, & @fearphage! ‘Buffering’, ‘de-bouncing’, and the setTimeout examples have pushed me in the right direction(s).

atxryan: A real Turing machine: http://aturingmachine.com | So. Very. Cool.

atxryan: @iamnoah @fearphage That’s pretty much what I recommended. I was hoping there might be a better way that takes into account keystroke speed.

atxryan: I should clarify that I know I can just attach to onkey events, but I’m interested in reducing server calls: fire call when typing pauses.

atxryan: Can anyone point me to a best practice example for async form validation, but onkeypress rather than onblur? I.e. as the user enters data.

atxryan: http://likebutton.me is awesome.
