There is an "about this site" link at the bottom, where he lists some of the third party services used.

In general he has a few global objects which seem to contain everything for each section; ajax requests, animations (which are webkit only as far as I can tell) etc. Most of it is done via jQuery.

> animations (which are webkit only as far as I can tell)

So that's why people were calling it pretty. It does actually look good with all that prefix nonsense fixed.

Seems odd to use prefixes for things that were unprefixed 2years ago in Firefox.

One of my pet peeves is when people are so "in" the webkit world they don't bother to even list the unprefixed version. I too looked at it in Firefox, and things actually look a bit broken. My guess is adding the unprefixed version would probably fix the majority of the errors I see.

I won't go so far as to say stop using prefixes, but ALWAYS include the unprefixed version last in the CSS stack. It's so easy with Sass also.

Insofar as I could tell, doing a simple s/-webkit-//g got things working, except for the gradients due to them still being in the old format.
