Mark, could you please stop posting anything about HTML5 Canvas ... I cannot take it anymore ... I cannot find enough hours in the day to check/read and digest all that new information ... I am slowly reaching a memory overload... :mrgreen:

Like the card I received a few weeks back:

:lol: Is canvas is set to be a replacement for Java and ultimately Flash? As browsers start to support hardware graphics acceleration better, and the JavaScript engines get faster, HTML5 will become the portable platform of choice methinks. The same graphic rich page/app will render the same (almost!) on Windows, Mac, Linux, and your phone/tablets.

The Windows 8 UI is based on HTML5 and Javascript. I may have to do a new front end for Cumulus so it works nicely; there's a 'legacy' mode, of course.

As is webOS already I believe, and all the apps.
