Chronotype.theme (DEMO)
A jQuery based typographic clock for use as a page widget (PerPageHtml) (or, possibly, a Lock Screen [Winterboard]) on jailbroken iPhones.
Why?
The purpose of this little project was really just to mess around in JS and try out the slabtext plugin. There are a couple dozen things you'll find in runClock.js that could be done a lot better. The decision to use slabtext at all being chief among them - but that was really my goal when I started. I also added ideas randomly and with little or no forethought so it became a mess of ideas chopped into one another haphazardly and has only been improved slightly since. At some point I may go back and rewrite the core pieces of the code so things happen in a more logical progression - this should also eliminate all of my little quick fixes.
