do you ever sit around thinking about user interface design? me too. Jennifer Tidwell writes the following in her Introduction to UI Patterns and Techniques.

They’re common problems, and there’s no point in reinventing the wheel every time you need, say, a sortable table — plenty of folks have already done it, and learned how to do it well. Some of that knowledge is written up here, in an easily-digestible format.
