Google I/O 2012 - The Web Can Do That!?

Eric Bidelman

The web is changing so quickly that it's hard to keep up with what's new in the platform. HTML5's new capabilities allow developers to build a whole new suite of applications - things that were once impossible to do, are now a reality.

This session will walk you down the bleeding edge of HTML5 for 2012 by focusing on in-depth techniques, which solve real world challenges. We'll cover media capture, file I/O, advanced usage of websockets, media streaming, device input, multimedia, and modern css design.

I hate IE myself, but to be fair, the huge blame we put on IE is due to how Microsoft shipped the Windows OS with IE as default browser. Example, if Microsoft used Firefox as default since Windows XP, probably, there are many users using old version of Firefox so we'll start blaming Firefox

Poor web developers. The fat lazy people browsing porn are the boss cause developers need make sure websites work for these people when they could have just updated their system.

Who hates bills? This strategy is nice, but Monthly Bill Nutshell helped me earn money online and I never have to stress about a bill ever again. Search google for Monthly Bill Nutshell (NOW).

Agreed. As a website developer, it's been a royal pain in the ass to deal with IE. I use the Chromeframe plugin to prompt users to install Chrome to render the pages, rather than trying to render in IE. At least this bridges the gap a bit. Supporting IE is a bad move, it takes away my ability to push the envelope in website development using "modern" technologies like HTML5, CSS3, etc.

Suck it? It's your loss. At least 50% and in some parts of the world IE still has the monopoly (think China). Wanna make frustrated users who hate and recommend against yur site? Sure, make it not work.

I wasn't saying you are required to make it work in IE, but come on, honestly. A selfrespecting webdeveloper makes their site work in IE. If not, you are not a competent developer. And that's that.

(da new one) <-- Oh goodness Google. Never do this again xD

[CarptheFish]

No, I don't have to. IE users can just suck it.

YOU might not like to use it, but the hard real-world fact is that at least more than half of everyone visiting your website WILL be using it. You HAVE to make your website work on IE, whether you like it or not. If you don't know how or don't want to, you are one bad web developer.
