Google Uses UI Datepicker: jQuery, JavaScript, My Work

Google Uses UI Datepicker

Tags: jQuery, JavaScript, My Work | Written on 28/12/07

Google let me know that they are using jQuery UI Datepicker on Google Code (http://code.google.com/events/calendar/add/). This is great news, Google is actually adopting something I wrote! Here is a screenshot:

Google Code using UI Datepicker

Google did a nice job of changing the colors to match their site (refer to the screenshot above). I think the simple skin provides an easy way to adopt the datepicker's look and feel into web applications, but I think that we need new skins for the datepicker. If anyone wants to contribute designs please let me know.

I can't leave this post without mentioning Keith Wood, thanks for all the great work. And to everyone who has sent me emails and feedback, thanks again!
