I’ve seen this technique used quite a bit (pinterest.com, factorymagazine.com) where the content(or content excerpts) are displayed in tiles of varying sizes in a seemingly fluid manner. I’m wonder what this is called and how it’s achieved. Thanks.

var wall = new Masonry(document.getElementById("container"));
