Run a podcast? Here's a little JavaScript function to test if your show is currently "On the Air".
/**
* onAir.js
*
* @param {string} day [the day your show airs (eg. "Tuesday")]
* @param {string} start [start time of the show in 24hr format (eg. "13:00")]
* @param {string} end [stop time of the show in 24hr format (eg. "14:30")]
* @param {string} timezone [the UTC time zone of your show (eg. "-6" for Central Time)]
* @return {bool}
*/
var onAir = function (day, start, end, timezone) {

stevenschobert / eventEmitterJquery.js
Created December 16, 2013 22:38
If you ever need to whip up a quick event emitter, and you already have jQuery, you can piggyback off jQuery's events:
// event emitter factory built off jQuery events
eventEmitter = function eventEmitter () {
var pipe = $({}),
api = {
trigger: function trigger (event, data) {
pipe.trigger({
type: event,
customData: data
});
},
