On the use of style guides..

Prevention is better than cure they say. And when it comes to style guides, it is far easier to start a new project with a clearly defined style then it is to implement a style and and clean up your code when you are already thousands of lines deep.

Note to self: pick a style guide early as possible and stick to it, especially for languages like Javascript because they make it very easy to blast out hundreds of lines of spaghetti without much thought.
