HTML 5 spec not released until 2022?
So will we really still be waiting for HTML 5 to get ratified in 2022? Of course the browsers will be supporting the new version before then and we are starting to see the advancements creep into browsers already. They likely will fully support the spec ahead of its official launch but this means that interpretations and more critically implementations can be slightly different and those left building the websites are stuck doing what we do now, accommodate all the variations in how browsers handle the code.
Ian Hickson, the editor of the HTML 5 specification, recently outlined the time table for HTML 5 and, even assuming browser manufacturers embrace HTML 5 when it reaches the final draft stage, that puts HTML 5’s widespread adoption at 2012. Worse, the final proposed recommendation won’t be released until 2022.
HTML 5 Won’t Be Ready Until 2022. Yes, 2022. – monkey_bites
Chrome = Fast
Today Google released Chrome a new beta browser that puts Google in direct competition with Microsoft and Mozilla.
My first impression (and consistent with other comments and developers) is just how fast it renders web pages. Now it still has its issues and we are working to identify those across all our properties, but man does it seem to out perform my other browsers in my casual tests.
I can’t wait for more testing to appear online.
