ES5 Function bind shim
/*
A shim for non ES5 supporting browsers.
Adds function bind to Function prototype, so that you can do partial application.
Works even with the nasty thing, where the first word is the opposite of extranet, the second one is the profession of Columbus, and the version number is 9, flipped 180 degrees.

Function.prototype.bind = Function.prototype.bind || function(to){
// Make an array of our arguments, starting from second argument
var partial = Array.prototype.splice.call(arguments, 1),
// We'll need the original function.

var Car = function(make, model, color) {
this.make = make;
this.model = model;

// This way works:
var pinto = new Car('ford', 'pinto', 'green');

var pinto = Car('ford', 'pinto', 'green');

A 'super' method for backbone.js (plain javascript)
// This method gives you an easier way of calling super
// when you're using Backbone in plain javascript.
// It lets you avoid writing the constructor's name multiple
// times. You still have to specify the name of the method.
//
// So instead of having to write:
//
// User = Backbone.Model.extend({
// save: function(attrs) {
// this.beforeSave(attrs);

Javascript Standards and Patterns

From Javascript Web Applications by Alex MacCaw,

"The secret to making large JavaScript applications is not to make large JavaScript applications. Instead, you should decouple your application into a series of fairly independent components. The mistake developers often make is creating applications with a lot of interdepenency, with huge linear JavaScript files generating a slew of HTML tags. These sorts of applications are difficult to maintain and extend, so they should be avoided at all costs. Paying a bit of attention to an applications structure when you start building it can make a big difference to the end result. Ignore any preconceived notions you have about JavaScript and treat it like the object-oriented language that it is. Use classes, ineritance, objects, and patterns in the same way you would if you were building an application in another language such as Python or Ruby. Architecture is critical to server-side applications, so why shouldn't the same apply to client-side apps."
