Screencast 04: Beer, music, Textmate, and YUI

In the fourth installment of the screencast series, I demonstrate how to do a very simple tree toggle with JavaScript, CSS, and HTML. However, I don't feel that this was the point of this particular screencast, since there are, perhaps, already a bajillion tree togglers out there already. This one instead, focuses on how I get stuff done.

There are times when you just want to see how somebody works on a daily basis. You know, just to peak over someone's shoulder without them knowing you're there. I picked a simple task (such as the tree toggler) and put myself in an environment that I am most comfortable in (beer, music, textmate, and YUI). And voila! This short movie was put together without me talking this time, but hopefully you will enjoy the music. Cheers!
