Chrome OS is a customized Linux distribution based on Debian. The desktop environment of Chrome OS is just the "Chrome browser" which displays time, battery level, and network information on the browser title bar. Bing's name was revealed to come from a 100-year-old man named Dr. Richard Bing who contacted Microsoft saying he was 99 years old and wanted to work with them since they used his name for their new search engine. YUI 3.0 was released with improvements including more convenient node selection, shorter code syntax, self-contained packages referenced from a single seed file, and easier dependency management.
This document discusses several topics related to HTML5 and web development, including:
1. A book review of "A Book Apart’s HTML5 for Web Designers" which covers various aspects of HTML5.
2. Several HTML5 demos showing implementations of Canvas drawing, HTML5 games, and 3D effects.
3. Solutions for performing cross-origin AJAX requests including using proxies, iframes, JSONP, modifying document.domain, and the new Cross-Origin Resource Sharing specification.
4. Information on Google releasing a mobile version of the Chrome browser and work on voice recognition for Android.
This document summarizes upcoming browser updates and technologies:
1) Major browsers like IE, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari will be releasing new versions in the coming months, bringing improvements like faster release cycles for Chrome and HTML5/CSS3 support for Safari extensions.
2) It discusses technologies for measuring webpage performance across browsers and standards like W3C Web Timing and potential Node.js solutions for dynamic CSS.
3) Preview technologies are mentioned like the Less.js dynamic stylesheet language, CSS3 PIE polyfills, and the Syn synthetic event library for improving JavaScript testing.

Chromebooks are optimized for web use and provide a faster, simpler, and more secure experience without the headaches of traditional computers. The Chrome Web Store launched with over 500 online apps and Chrome OS notebooks are expected to be released next year. Google has improved the JavaScript engine in Chrome which has led to a 50% increase in V8 engine performance and over 300% faster than Firefox 3.6.11.
This document discusses how to create a rich text editor using YUI3. It provides examples of using designMode and contentEditable to enable rich text editing. It also covers using execCommand to implement common formatting commands like bold, italic, links. It discusses implementing ranges and selections cross-browser. The document outlines the plugin architecture in YUI3 Editor including nodeChange and execCommand plugins. It provides links to resources on ranges and an example rich text editor implementation.
This document summarizes sessions from the YUI Conf 2010 conference, including sessions on YUI3 modules and DOM abstraction, porting Flickr to YUI3, YUI3 loading strategies, handling data in YUI3, AutoComplete, Treeview and Gallery modules, progressive enhancement with YUI, Node.js and YUI3, bulletproof HTML5, testing with Selenium, TestSwarm, JSTestDriver and Yeti, touch support in YUI 3.2.0, high performance JavaScript techniques, contributing to YUI, and using tools like boomerang and RRDtools.
The document discusses the uses of JavaScript outside traditional web browsers including for Windows Phone 7, Xbox 360 Kinect, Mac OS and PC without a browser, as a server-side language with Node.js, in 3D games with Unity 3D, and for data visualization with Processing JS. It also mentions some of JavaScript's capabilities like the Google V8 engine, event support, using databases like JSON and Redis, and using YUI3 on the server-side with Node.js.
This document discusses social networks and relationships. It notes that most people regularly interact with 4 to 6 close contacts, known as strong ties, and can only actively maintain relationships with a limited number of weaker acquaintances. The document advocates that technology should aim to understand human behavior and represent different types of social relationships, including strong ties, weaker ties, and temporary interactions, rather than just focusing on the capabilities of a particular platform. It also recommends designing social features for multiple groups and different relationship levels.
The document provides information on various visual tools including tools for working with colors, shadows, transforms, gradients, forms, and more. URLs are provided for online tools that allow manipulating colors, gradients, shadows, transforms, and creating wireframes and prototypes. The last section expresses that visual tools should be intuitive, unified, efficient, and simple to use.
I. Spoon is a browser extension and server platform that allows apps to be run from Spoon's servers and virtualized in Spoon's ecosystem. It provides a browser sandbox and app library.
II. Mouseflow is a click and movement analytics tool that generates heatmaps showing where users click and move their mouse on websites. It can be installed via JavaScript code or a WordPress plugin.
III. The document discusses Internet Explorer compatibility issues and introduces the new X-UA-Compatible meta tag to control document rendering mode in IE versions.
This document contains summaries and links to various articles on topics including:
1. Google experimenting with human news editors picking content
2. An online slideshow providing an overview of jQuery and how to use it
3. Recommendations for mobile browser cache limits and using HTML5 application cache to keep file sizes small
WordPress 3.0 was released with new features like the Twenty Ten theme, custom menus and headers, improved dashboard, and support for multi-site, custom post types, and taxonomies. WordPress is an open source CMS with a large market share that is SEO friendly and has a powerful plugin ecosystem. It powers many top websites and blogs around the world including WordPress.com, CNN, New York Times, and TechCrunch.
This document summarizes key points about the development of HTML5 from several industry leaders and perspectives. It discusses Steve Jobs noting the world is moving to HTML5. It also discusses quotes from Vic Gundotra of Google about betting big on HTML5 and its transformation. Dean Hachamotitch of Microsoft is quoted as wanting HTML5 to actually work. New HTML5 elements, APIs, and browser support are summarized.
