Use JSMin when do web developing

I started to use JSLint and JSMin just couple weeks ago but now I have to say that everybody must use it.
Today I used JSMin and I have to say that In my case it saves ~22% of space (original size was 28kb and after minimization it was 22kb).

So, now when you are ready to put your JS libraries to productive server, use JSMin always! It is really cool (at least I think so :) )

You should try yui compressor:

That combined with GZIP can significantly shrink your JS and CSS files.
