The second Theme Thursday’s topic was jQuery, yet again another great choice for the week’s theme. As one of my favourite JavaScript libraries i was super pleased it was the chosen topic, it seems im not the only one who loves all things jQuery, as lots of people joined in to share links and resources on the subject.
Future of Theme Thursday
From now on the links to the chosen theme each week will be tweeted from our new dedicated account: @themethursday, so in order for you to see the links you will need to follow that account or you will miss out on all the super useful resources tweeted each week! The reason for this is so as to avoid overwhelming my own followers and it’s also going to be used in conjunction with the website im developing for Theme Thursday (which should be up and running within the next two weeks).
