I will just add I’ve been following your work since smush.it and it gives me great pleasure seeing such a prolific and successful compatriot mixing it up with the the likes of Doug Crockford, Steve Souders and the incredible Yahoo team, putting back so much into the javascript and webdev communities. All I can say is, keep up the amazing work.

Good luck!


var Single = function(name) {
function Klass() { };
function Single(name) {
name && (one.name = name);
return one;
}
Single.prototype = Klass.prototype = window.Single.prototype;
window.Single = Single;
var one = new Klass;
return Single(name);
};

Single.prototype.getName = function () {
return this.name;
};



var Single = (function() {
function Klass() { };
function Single(name) {
one.name = name || 'Foo';
return one;
}
var one = new Klass;
Single.prototype = Klass.prototype;
return Single;
})();

Single.prototype.getName = function () {
return this.name;
};


The it works cross-browser, the instance isn’t stored as an external property, and it allows `Single` to work when called as function or a constructor.


function Single() {
"strict me not!";

if (Single.instance) {
return Single.instance;
}
Single.instance = this;
this.name = "Foo";
}
