Nice job. Is it a problem with the state of webdev that the thing I was most impressed by was that your website didn't break my back button? Seriously, good work.

Well, that's a nice feature, but as you bring it up, deep linking isn't possible ;-) There are various techniques to enable it though, pushState(), hash fragments etc.

The thing I was most impressed by was the fact that the left and right cursor buttons worked straight off the bat :D

Unfortunately very CPU intense, compared to SVG-based indicators

Any numbers available?

looks like a problem with my chromium as firefox is almost idle when displaying the indicators. (30.0.1599.114 Developer Build 30.0.1599.114-0ubuntu0.12.04.3 x86_64)

Best would be a replaceState: would not break back button, would allow deep linking.
