Just wanted to point out that your Document Ready tip is actually incorrect... jQuery.ready (as opposed to jQuery.fn.ready) appears to be a internal function for triggering jQuery's "ready" event, as you can see in the <a href="https://github.com/jquery/jquery/blob/master/src/core.js#L396" rel="nofollow">source code</a>. Any functions passed in this way will not be executed. The <a href="http://jsperf.com/ready/4" rel="nofollow">latest revision</a> of the jsperf test case notes this as well. Great post.

The high level requirements of the app are: 1) Development of static pages that allow a user to input details 2) Integration of the app with mobile advertising platforms (e.g. Admob) 3) Integration of the app with social media (facebook, twitter, youtube) 4) The app is a simple utility app which also contains basic gamelike features i.e. the app will have a moving object on the screen which will require the user to try and touch the object to stop it Are you available for work?
