Footnotes on the web are troublesome. You click on a tiny number, get transported somewhere near the bottom of the page, find the footnote you were looking for, and click on a link to go back to where you were on the page.
Bigfoot is a jQuery plugin for empowering footnotes, which makes that whole process painless. It automatically detects the footnote link and content, turns the link into an easy-to-click button, and puts up a popover when the reader clicks on the footnote button.

There are wonderful and feature-rich calendar modules out there and they all suffer the same problem: they give you markup (and often a good heap of JS) that you have to work with and style. This leads to a lot of hacking, pushing, pulling, and annoying why-can’t-it-do-what-I-want scenarios.
CLNDR is a jQuery calendar plugin. Unlike most calendar plugins, CLNDR doesn’t generate markup. Instead, CLNDR asks you to create a template and in return it supplies your template with a great set of objects that will get you up and running in a few lines.
