if they are using html5 features and degrading gracefully, as most html5 does by default anyway, why not say you are using html5?
for one it might help push a few people into using more html5 capable browsers.
- jacquesm 17y agoThey only use features of HTML5 that are also supported by older browsers: From the article: "Friedman estimates that 97 percent of browsers will be able to read Scribd’s HTML5 documents because those parts of the standard are older and more widely adopted." I don't read that as 'graceful degradation', but as a subset based on older tech.
- tyler 17y agoWe create basically the same experience across browsers, but use the latest tech that the browser supports. For instance, things will render much faster in Chrome than in IE6. However, the documents will basically look the same across all of our supported browsers.
