Show HN: PathScrollbarMenu - A Javascript, Path inspired scrollbar menu

Hey HN!

This is PathScrollbarMenu, a javascript implementation of the neat little scrollbar indicator that you can see on Path's mobile apps. It allows the developer to center any content on the scrollbars of a site.

We implemented it at Jetsetter so we could allow users to jump between sections, but still give them the largest content area possible.

GitHub: http://jetsetter.github.com/PathScrollbarMenu/

There is an example page in the project but you can also check it out in action on our new homepage: www.jetsetter.com/?via=hackernewsos

You may want to include a screenshot of the menu on your github page for people that do not want to sign in to jetsetter to take a peek.

Thanks for sharing!

Yeah sorry about that, I didn't think that through. Ill go ahead and include a screenshot for now. In the future we'll suppress that login popup for people coming from GitHub/Hacker News/Reddit, so you can get a feel for it without signing up.
