I like it! Very nice. I think I'd like it better if the start/stop/reset buttons looked more like the controls on a remote control to a DVD player though :)

I can do that with font awesome. But most people won't know.

Nice job Jason! If you're looking to improve upon it I have a suggestion. This could just be for me, but after I use any of the buttons they stay selected causing a loss of function for the 'space' and 'r' keys until the whichever button that was pressed loses focus after. Triggering a blur event might do the trick. I like it though. Keep up the good coding man.

I'll keep that in mind.
