Pretty nice effect - well done, good code. Now when exactly would one have a need for this?

“Pretty nice effect - well done, good code. Now when exactly would one have a need for this?”

Introducing/Presenting your sales team?

Showing the business cards flipping, front and back?

Having a visual representation of a sheet of paper, then flipping to show the other side?

showing a candidates ‘flip flop’ on the issues with the first side showing their previous, then current position?

showing CSSDrive comments alternatively?
silly ones on one side, and mine on the other?

Another nail in the coffin of Flash.

Nah that’s just been stupid, but it is another example of the power of jQuery.. gosh I love it!

And Mark’s right. Imagine being able to give an online client presentation, full pitch with something like this. OK yes it would take a lot more work than slapping it together in Keynote or Powerpoint but still.. the fact that it can be done with semantic mark-up is pretty cool.
