Lazy Load - a jQuery plugin

While visiting Mashable today, I noticed that the images on the page were being loaded as I scrolled down. Very cool! Allows for a very quick page load time. I did some research and found that this can be accomplished using Lazy Load, a plugin for jQuery: http://www.appelsiini.net/projects/lazyload. I haven't tried it myself, so I can't really attest to it's functionality, but I highly recommend this plugin for anyone creating a web page with heavy image content.
