* Hi Jason,
* I’ve just installed your plugin for the first time, in order to replace the WordPress
jquery and jquery-ui links with the Google equivalents – seems to be working
great so far!
* I have a couple of questions for you:
* 1) In addition to changing the link URLs in the section, the plugin also
added this line:
* ```
```
* Can you explain what this is for or what it does?
* 2) Before installing your plugin, my site had the following line at the very
end of the source code, just before the closing tag – along with a few
other lines for CSS and JS files from my theme and from some other plugins:
* ```
```
* But your plugin has moved this line to the top, into the section:
* ```
```
* I’m wondering why this is? I imagine there must be a good reason why the jquery-
ui file is originally at the very end and not in the head section. Wouldn’t it
be better if your plugin leaves it in the same location as it originally is?
* Cheers!

* The extra script tag are to keep thing compatable with WordPress core. The jquery.
js provided by WordPress has been modified to end with `jQuery.noConflict()`,
so this does it’s best to ensure you get the same result when pulling jQuery
from google.
* My plugin is not changing where it’s loading (or it shouldn’t be), but the WordPress
script loader is. Note that jQuery-UI when coming from Google is a single file,
and from WordPress it’s a bunch of small files. Same content, but the browser
performance is better when it’s one file. There’s a chance this difference is
interacting with some prerequisite of some other script, causing the script loader
to determine it should load in the header.
