Brad Neuberg of the Google Developer programs stopped by Yahoo! last week talk about HTML5. Brad has been hard at work on SVG Web lately, but he covered a lot of ground in this talk, including SVG/Canvas rendering, CSS transforms, app-cache, local databases, web workers, and much more. Brad does a fantastic job identifying the scope and practical implications of the changes that are coming along with HTML5 support in modern browsers. And he pulls no punches about which browsers fall into th |

Behold the, um, Beholder! | 2009-10-13 09:00 |
Over on my blog I report a new release of SVG Web from the SVG Web team: Yowsers! It’s another release of SVG Web , this time code named Beholder: According to the classic D&D Monster Manual, the Beholder is an “aggressive and avaricious spherical monster that is most frequently found underground.” In other words, you don’t want to bump into this guy in a back alley. This release, roughly about 1 month of work, has contributions from many users and developers. We’ve knocked out |

SVG and Me. Seven Years On. | Mon 12 Oct 2009 | Blog | CodeStore | 2009-10-12 03:10 |
My love for SVG withered due to lack of support for it. As I remember it the only browser you could use it with was IE and even then you had to manually download and install a plugin. It just wasn't really a viable technology at that ... |

Google Chrome Frame: the Technical Details | 2009-09-28 06:00 |
Google Chrome Frame is the first realistic solution that addresses the problem of Internet Explorer 6.0 . It allows businesses users to retain IE for legacy systems but provide enhanced features in new applications (more about that later) . I’ve been testing Chrome Frame for the past few days and I’m impressed. Chrome Frame Installation Installing Chrome Frame is as easy as installing Flash, the PDF viewer, or any other IE plugin.

Google Chrome Frame | 2009-09-23 11:19 |
Google Chrome Frame ( via ) is another recent Google project that is worth paying attention: it’s a plugin that turns Internet Explorer into Google Chrome (I gloss, but you get the point). Jim Ray sums up what this means for developers: So, what’s a developer to do with all of this? Of course, we can’t scrap IE entirely just yet and your own development plans should be dictated by your site’s unique audience. However, I’d suggest that Chrome Frame potentially makes designing for progressi |
