I hate being watched. Unfortunately, no matter what some people may say, we’re headed to a point where we’ll be watched 24/24, no matter what we’ll do. Call it “new world order,” call it as you like, but I am afraid that’s the destination of our current involution (no, the human race stopped its evolution some years ago, so “involution” is the right word to use). Anwyay, as long as I’m being watched by a script that has no connection with any “dark entity,” everything’s fine.
The script I mentioned above is TypeWatch, and its purpose is to determine when your user finished typing in a textbox on your site. This jQuery plugin is about one year old now, and you can use it to come up with some kind of AJAX auto-complete implementation, for example.
TypeWatch has 4 settings to mess with, namely callback, wait, highlight, and capture length. All of them are described on the official project page I mentioned above, and if you want to take a look at the demo, you can find that one here.
