Apple, HTML5 and web standards

HTML5 Showcase
The demos below show how the latest version of Apple’s Safari web browser, new Macs, and new Apple mobile devices all support the capabilities of HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript. Not all browsers offer this support. But soon other modern browsers will take advantage of these same web standards — and the amazing things they enable web designers to do.

All pretty impressive if you ask me.. lets see how Adobe and Flash evolve their product. You’ll obviously need Safari 5 installed on your machine.

Nice .

Google’s “Wave”

Lawrence Garwood — Fri, 29 May 2009 08:03:03 +0000

An article from Techcruch, introduces us to an ambitious Google concept/prototype. A new communication platform for a new web.

Is this social media meeting productivity…. ? Finally.
Judging by the screen shots.. there’s going to be a steep learning curve.

Spotify

Spotify is an application that when downloaded to your machine, will let you make a search for some music that you want to hear, but don’t own; invariably it will find it and play it (internet connection needed). It’s instant, simple and free (that’s their strapline by the way). It’s revenue model is based on using legalised music.. you just have to hear/see adverts every now and then. Oh and by the way you can save your playlists.. and pass them around

Brilliant!

I’ve been using Spotify for some time now and realised that I haven’t posted about.. My musings with the new Muxtape made me realise that using Spotify (as a application) has just been as natural to use, as a new application could be. The UI is not re-inventing the wheel, the playlists are great and I’ve realised that the data they are getting form our usage is a complete gold mine for targeted, cross selling of adverts

It just works…
