<p><strong><a href="http://dustindiaz.com/qwery">Qwery - The Tiny Selector Engine</a></strong></p> A quarter of the size of Sizzle (1K gzipped and minified) due to only supporting ID, class and attribute selectors. Could be useful for things like embeddable widgets and badges, where depending on a larger library is impolite. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/badges">badges</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/css">css</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/javascript">javascript</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/recovered">recovered</a></p>

<p><strong><a href="http://lanyrd.com/blog/2011/badges/">Display your events on your own website with Lanyrd Badges</a></strong></p> We’ve launched badges for Lanyrd—JavaScript that lets you embed a top bar or a content “splat” showing events you plan to attend, talks you’ve given in the past and other various combinations. I’m quite pleased with the implementation—the badges are configured using classes on a link to your Lanyrd profile, and the badges themselves are served through a combination of Amazon CloudFront for the initial script and a Varnish cache for the badge data itself to keep things nice and snappy. <p>Tags: <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/badges">badges</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/caching">caching</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/cloudfront">cloudfront</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/javascript">javascript</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/varnish">varnish</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/lanyrd">lanyrd</a>, <a href="https://simonwillison.net/tags/recovered">recovered</a></p>
