Make Internet Explorer Render Like Chrome with Chrome Frame

I really hate debugging css in IE6 sometimes so this is some good news. Google’s Chrome Frame plugin for Internet Explorer is public now.

Mashable:

The Chrome Frame plugin can be used for Internet Explorer 6, 7 and 8. Once the user downloads the plugin, the browser detects the single meta tag added to the site on the developer’s end, and Chrome Frame switches to the Webkit rendering engine.

At the end of the day, if you’re dead and the choices are don’t freeze yourself or freeze yourself, why would not freeze yourself?

Mozilla Seabird

This is a really cool concept. I’ve been saying the phone should be able to do this for a long time. I like the song too.

Flash vs. HTML5: Adobe Weighs In

This is a really good read. It’s a good move on Adobe part to embrace the new technologies. If you could export Flash movies to HTML5/CSS3 that would be sick but I don’t know if that’s the way Adobe is going.

Mashable:

Adobe, understandably, has a different position. It believes that Flash and HTML5 can exist side-by-side and that each has its own set of strengths and weaknesses. I had a chance to talk to Paul Gubbay, Adobe’s VP of design and web engineering, about HTML5, Flash, the emerging mobile landscape and how Adobe fits into this new world.
