Screencast, Adding Your Own MooTools Plugins to the Forge

The MooTools forge is awesome. This screencast shows you how to make it more awesome by adding your own mootools plugins to the forge. It features my newest plugin, Fx.Scroll.Carousel, though I wish I could have done this screencast for SlideShow instead, since it’s my favorite plugin I’ve made so far. Enjoy!
