Aside from inline object literals, and using strict equality (which you should always be using IMO), what does this specifically have to do this Javascript? Everything else applies to general programming.

A friend and I built Tou (a web clone of Mou) a few months ago. It supports dropbox and HTML5 local storage :-)

It appears in need of a little maintenance (broken tables) but I like this. Nice work.

I am not a fan how every single youtube link is automatically embedded on the page.

Apparently, was attempting to (ab)use GitHub for a hosting provider, and so is now offline for being over quota.

And here's the Cliff's Notes:

2004: McAfee sells his entire stake in his antivirus company for something like $100 million. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/08/21/business/economy/21inequal...

2004: He starts building a compound in New Mexico for aerotrekking, i.e. flying ultralight aircraft. http://www.desertexposure.com/200711/200711_mcafee_icarus.ph...

2006: His nephew dies in an aerotrekking accident.

2007: He's getting major press coverage for his aerotrekking and his band of "Sky Gypsies". http://adventure.nationalgeographic.com/2008/06/aerotrekking...

2009: The financial crash supposedly wipes out most of his wealth, reducing his net worth to $4 million. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/08/21/business/economy/21inequal...

2010: He relocates to Belize. He is supposedly studying quorum-sensing in rainforest plants with a brilliant young doctor. http://www.fastcompany.com/1615167/plagued-lawsuits-mcafee-f...

May 2012: McAfee's house is raided and he's charged with running a meth-lab and possessing illegal firearms. Than the charges are dropped. But he goes on the run for a few days anyway. http://www.gizmodo.co.uk/2012/05/meth-labs-and-dead-dogs-how...

8 November 2012: Oops! Turns out he moved to Belize and planted the rumor that he lost 96% of his wealth to avoid possible damages in case he loses the civil lawsuits against him in the US related to his nephew's death. Oh, and now he hangs out with known gangsters. http://gizmodo.com/5958877/secrets-schemes-and-lots-of-guns-...

12 November 2012: McAfee is wanted in connection with the murder of his neighbor. http://gizmodo.com/5959812/john-mcafee-wanted-for-murder
