JPEGlitch update…
Just a quick update on some new features and improvements to my JPEG glitching code for AS3.
Check out a little demo of newly added 'decode glitching' here and see some test images saved from the Flash, here.
It should work with most JPEGs - I've implemented and tested parsing for progressive/baseline/optimised etc. But if you find one that won't load, let me know and I'll see if I can add support for it.
This is still a work in progress, so all the user control of glitching and the source code will come at a later date.
Enjoy.

Google Browser Size
Google Labs has a visualization of the different browser sizes used by people accessing google.com. It can be overlaid over any site to see what percentage of people have to scroll to see elements, the drop off after 1024x768 is quite remarkable. How much of this is negated by people having a smaller browser window to search or netbooks even?
