After reading this article I went ahead and forked the Konami-Unicorn-Blitz project (the same one this article references). Added a hideAfter property that autohides the unicorns after 30 seconds and submitted a pull request. We'll see if the change is accepted :) GitHub is neat.

I accepted your patch... ;) John had already given me contributor access so I went ahead and followed his lead. GitHub is excellent.

BitBucket is the Best Thing Ever too!

Yeah. I like BitBucket as well. I'm just more of a Git guy right now, and all of my favorite projects and people are on GitHub.

It's got a social-network lock-in effect for me right now. I can't leave and go somewhere that has none of my friends. But boy, I love BitBucket's pricing. I wish I could get at least 1 private repo on GitHub without paying a monthly fee. It'd be nice to have a personal repo to store configuration files and such that contain passwords... :(

Oh well.
