JavaScript competition js1k returns

Tiny JavaScript app competition js1k has returned, and this time the theme is love. Entrants have until 1 March to submit their demos, and can win a number of prizes, including ThinkGeek credit and cold, hard cash.

Site owner Peter van der Zee told .net that while js1k started as a joke response to the An Event Apart 10k competition, it soon snowballed: "I ended up with over 700 submissions". In part, this was down to frustrations with the 10k competition, said van der Zee: "It allowed external resources such as jQuery. While it wasn't the objective of aea10k to focus on 'golfing' like js1k does, the 10k part of the competition still felt wrong."
