27 Websites leveraging jQuery Masonry
We all know jQuery has become a huge platform, and the different techniques and effects are all over the web.
jQuery is a very powerful platform, and usually accompanied with CSS and WordPress, developers can create some amazing projects. David DeSandro created a layout plugin called Masonry.
“Think of it as the flip side of CSS floats. Whereas floating arranges elements horizontally then vertically, Masonry arranges elements vertically then horizontally according to a grid. The result minimizes vertical gaps between elements of varying height, just like a mason fitting stones in a wall.”
This plugin has created some really amazing websites, I personally have been looking around to gather inspiration, because I think I want to start a personal blog that I can grab clips, quotes, tweets, pics, images from around the web and throw them on a site. What better way to do it then with the jQuery Masonry plugin. I love how, the grid is so sporadic, it somehow feels so organized.
