No love for Opera, Flock people?
- windsurfer 16y agoFlock was open source, so presumably they prefer open source browsers.
- rodion_89 16y agoIf that was the case I assume they would have put a link to Chromium rather than Google Chrome.
- Androsynth 16y agoZynga is a web development company. They have no love for browser fragmentation; it means multiple environments they have to develop and test for.
- taylorbuley 16y agoAmen brother. That said, since Flock was build on Webkit I don't know if there's any less fragmentation caused by Flock flying the coop.
- alttab 16y agoRendering engine is not the same as Javascript. Lets talk IE7 javascript, vs Spidermonkey etc. When your application's speed is largely based on Javascript performance, this level of fragmentation becomes important. Ever use a sophisticated web app that said something like "Switching browsers could boost performance 50%!"?
- android2 16y agoAhem."use the new zyngaweb browser and earn an extra 20% Frontierville dollars." I think Zynga could induce serious (double digit) uptake onto their own browser. Once they have this kernel of user installations, where could they go next?
- Androsynth 16y agothats true for flock, but i was replying to the Opera comment.
