Great start for a first endeavor. Couple notes:

- Would definitely recommend rethinking the header/banner area. Takes up a lot of vertical space and seems unnecessary for such a simple tool.

- You're loading jQuery twice. Recommend removing that second version (line 14).

- http://wordcount.is/js/jquery.center.js is returning 404 and doesn't seem needed (line 12).

- It's best practice to cache your selectors for re-use in jQuery. Here's a slight rewrite that does that and cleans up your event binding: https://gist.github.com/3764620

Happy hacking!

Hey Josh,

I went ahead and implemented all of your suggestions (I think). Seems to be a little bit faster! Thanks.
