This is cool! I've definitely looked for a site that did this before. What's it built on?

Hilarious! It's an absurd combination but a surprisingly fun way to munge around with beats.

The 808 instruments sound intrinsically familiar and make the mishmash you get from random play still sound cohesive and coherent. It's an unexpectedly good choice for music toys like this. Gotta love that cowbell

Layering on your end, yeah.

Per pages like http://www.microlens.com/pages/choosing_right_lens.htm different applications prefer different viewing angles.

If you can track down ideal lenses and give tips for capturing ideal photos that'd be awesome.

http://poppy3d.com/ is cute product shipping soon: they might be interested in partnering (they've had ~2900 backers on Kickstarter)

This is super cool. I've looked a little at lenticular printing for 3D prints but sourcing the lenses was a little more effort than I needed. I'd pay well over material cost to have someone else handle assembling. If you add an option meant for that I'd be all over it.

This is cool! An interesting experiment.

I think a quick shadow does a lot to give the divider some heft and alleviate concerns about visual ambiguity between foreground and background page.

It would look something like http://cl.ly/image/2N3B2V2d2L3W (pardon the wonky #ss_topPage). It can be done in CSS (+ two empty divs, uh) with small effort. To me it feels like the most usable skeuomorphic hint you could drop.

Sass' Compass framework has a helper to automatically generate inline data URIs. http://compass-style.org/reference/compass/helpers/inline-da...

This is handy for media that will change--inlined images and such. Manually updating encodes is an easy step to forget.

These launched with Twitter's redesign last year. http://socialmediab2b.com/2011/12/b2b-twitter-brand-pages/

The "Promoted Tweet" pinned on top of brand pages is auto-expanded, so realistically most companies will probably be using it to showcase a video or graphic rather than trying to engage in 140. Oh well.

"Twitter for iPhone pro-tip: swipe up on Me for DMs and swipe left on Me to switch accounts." /via https://mobile.twitter.com/bhaggs/status/144846707925061632

Not the most discoverable gesture, but it's there, though it's only a little weirder than "swipe across tweet for secondary actions" (though on that topic I'll miss using that to quickly save links to Instapaper).
