A comment on Javascript and semicolon insertion.

I realize this is not the forum for this, but hopefully it will serve as a warning to others: the linked article does not scroll on the iPhone (horiz or vert orientation).

"Cool" layouts are all fun and games, but usability is king.

It does but you have to use two fingers.

Yup, I only learned about this feature a few months ago. It also makes other apps like the standard Google Reader usable.

It seems to be an issue with the iPhone and iPad. Hopefully Apple will fix it, as I'm sure there are other sites with scrollable areas within a page.

If not, I'll probably find a workaround eventually.
