For you javascript junkies

This one's for you Owen :-) A great set of examples that really put Javascript through its paces in the Chrome browser.

This one was impressive:
http://www.chromeexperiments.com/detail/twitch/

Its by Casey Reas, one of the authors of Processing. Note he's using
the 2D Processing-in-Javascript (Processing.js).

This is one reason we're considering SSJS (Server Side Javascript) as
an abs-fab envrionment. Blurs the distinction between client and
server, which is a Good Thing.

Now if Google ever makes Chrome available on platforms other than
Windows, that'd get me really on the band wagon. Maybe the next
Android?

Hey!
What was THAT?
I just went to this link- very cool, but I am not sure how to interact
with it.
How can I get more info?

When were those various physical computing / ambient modeling gigs
happening again? [ with a week or so notice?]

Thanks.
Wow, that was like a shot of espresso seeing those things. Excellent,
Owen.

Never you mind, I got it. Great way to spend time doing something
other than one's own work, thanking you so very much!

This actually might be a good thing to get people learning to learn,
to enhance various tools held innately that train them to notice, to
act, not to get stopped by mistakes, etc. Probably all old
conversation to many of you, but interesting to me.

There's an daily automated alpha build of chromium for Ubuntu available at:

https://launchpad.net/~chromium-daily/+archive/ppa

and firefox-3.5 and 3.6 as well at:

https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mozilla-daily/+archive/ppa

It's only your attachment to consumer operating systems that holds you back,
