Star Wars opening crawl from 1977 in HTML/CSS/JS
Cool, but sadly to me this is almost a parody of how modern web dev innovation HTML5/JS/CSS are so far behind the technology that actually exists in the world today (this was originally created in 1977). Web standards are good, but much faster and be far more "open" and expandable.<p>One suggestion. Don't just create a standard for (monopoly) ECMA Script, instead - create a standard for a VM that other languages can compile bytecode to. Create an API in this VM for graphics, video, audio, ETC. This may be self defeating for these clowns, because JavaScript/CSS/HTML may be decimated in a decade if they actually did this, but hey... One can hope.<p>Once Google firmly owns the browser (like Microsoft in the 2000s) one of two things will happen. One they say to hell with the standards board and push real innovation and opportunity for developers to innovate. Two, they will sit and let it stagnate. Either way, the cycle is coming around again. Android will own the market in a big way soon. Big opportunity is on the horizon and I am getting my hopes up that there is a big shake up with "browser standards". End the monopoly of lame markup, styling, and scripting (HTML/CSS/JS) in the OS of the internet.
