Very nice approach to get vis­i­tors to prove that they are actual humans and not (spam)robots. A jQuery captcha approach that asks the vis­i­tor to slide/unlock an ele­ment like on the iPhone.

Much bet­ter that the nor­mal captcha meth­ods where users have to type in let­ter com­bi­na­tions that are so hard to read that I find my self  press­ing the “can’t read the let­ters above” but­ton a lot.

The Google Font API helps you add web fonts to any web page.

Ben­e­fits of the Google Font API include:

• A choice of high qual­ity open source fonts.
• Works in most browsers.
• Extremely easy to use.

To give devel­op­ers a choice of high-quality fonts when using the Font API, we have cre­ated the Google Font Direc­tory. There you can browse our cat­a­log of avail­able fonts, learn about the font design­ers who cre­ated them, and copy the code required to use them on your web page.

The fonts in the direc­tory are all released under open source licenses; you can use them on any non-commercial or com­mer­cial project.
