On the heels of my recent find, I stumbled on this collection of multiple JavaScript demos. I’m both blown away by many of these, and yet, at the same time, becoming slightly jaded by all the JavaScript goodness being realized these days. On one level, I *know* this stuff is possible, so it doesn’t feel [...]
The “Sublime” video player is a new HTML5-based video player, offering you a way to stream video directly in to a browser without the need for any plugin (Silverlight, Flash, etc.) The project looks to be in relatively early stages, but works fine on my Chrome browser, supports Safari now, and will support Firefox soon. [...]
It’s not exactly what I was thinking of at first. I’d imagined some type of ray tracing showing details of cloth texture. Howver, this demo from Andre Hoyer is infinitely cooler than what I’d first imagined.
“Cloth simulation” simulates the outline of a piece of cloth/fabric dangling on the screen, which you can drag around by [...]
YouTube is starting to roll out experimental support for HTML5 video playing, using native browser HTML5 support rather than relying on Flash plugins. The support is limited to certain browsers and certain videos, and can be accessed by visiting the ‘TestTube‘ area of YouTube (or directly here). While this is early stages, having such a [...]
Just saw this making the rounds:

Developer Tobias Schneider created the software called “Gordon” which allows Flash apps to display on the iPhone. It’s a Flash interpreter written in Javascript, the language which is supported by all web browsers, including the iPhone, for allowing elements on web pages to be interactive, without requiring a full page [...]

WEBOS: PALM’S GAME-CHANGING MOBILE OPERATING SYSTEM – PART 2
Frank Zammetti’s back and shows you why Palm’s webOS deserves the hype [...]
A new Firefox project called Electrolysis is attempting to bring multicore support to Firefox. Currently, official Firefox builds only support one processor. If a computer has multiple cores, there’s no way for Firefox to take advantage of that extra power. Some other browsers already support multicore processing, and their JavaScript speeds are often much faster [...]
I recently stumbled on two different JavaScript loaders – labjs and runjs. Each can help you manage loading JavaScript dependancies for your projects, including (it seems) specifying a load order. If you’ve ever hit a situation where certain JS files needed to be loaded before others, you’ve hit the problem that JavaScript loaders [...]
Palm’s webOS was given a surprise upgrade just a few days ago with the addition of SDL in their 1.3.5 upgrade. Here’s a few stories about the upgrade and what the community did within hours of its release.

Some more reaction from Slashdot is here. Looks like the webOS is heating up a bit. :)
The WebDevRadio podcast did an interview with Frank Zammetti, who has a multi-part series in JSMag on JavaScript development with Palm Pre’s webOS. Have a listen!
