Undoing the travesty that was the removal of <blink>, thanks to AngularJS it's back! No longer do we have to suffer the injustice and indignity imposed upon us by so called "standards". Once again <blink> can reclaim its rightful place.
Other solutions (such as blink-polyfill) provide CSS code that only approximate the original, this solution operates exactly like the original <blink> element, in that only text blocks blinked, not inline elements (like <img>'s) - I mean, we don't want to effect usability now do we? It works cross browser (including IE). It degrades [relatively] gracefully when Javascript is not available.
