Prodded by a coworker’s transition-based mischief, I’d like to add that you can paste the following into Safari’s Web Inspector, sit back, and watch this blog or a page of your choosing gently sway. Hardware accelerated! I’m composing this in a swaying textarea! Don’t get seasick!
var i = 0;
document.body.style.webkitTransformOrigin = ’50% 0′;
document.body.style.webkitTransition = ‘-webkit-transform 5s ease-in-out’;
function sway() {
document.body.style.webkitTransform = ‘rotate(‘ + (++i % 2 ? ” : ‘-’) + ’3deg)’;
}
sway();
window.setInterval(sway, 5000);
