jQuery: snow effects for Christmas!

Tweet

As I did last year, here is a quick collection of Christmas effects. In particular we are talking about snow effects made exclusively with jQuery.

Ready for the holiday season? Here we go:

jQuery snow falling plugin
"Idea is to create one snowflake initially, clone that snowflake at some time interval and add random values for properties for each of them. And it’s done in less than 1kb minifed."

jQuery font flake / snow flake experiment
"was bored one night, had an hour charge left in the laptop, challenged myself with this."

jQuery Snowfall 1.5 update now with snow buildup!

jQuery Snow
"This extension decorates your webpage with falling snow."

Christmas is coming and you might want to put some effects on your web page.
I have thought a lot about saying this or not, but I couldn't pass over in silence: I really hate those kind of things, but I know that some of you might be interested anyway.
If so, please look into this short list of possible JavaScript and jQuery solutions.

Should I close the blog for Christmas holidays?

That's a question, isn't it? I've been struggling finding the answer for a week or so and I've reached a conclusion. 

The Web Thought will be closed for Christmas.

I will restart posting on January the 10th.
That's a loooong time. Will you resist?

Have a nice and splendid Christmas time, enjoy yourself, stay with your family and forget about programming for a while.
