"Can be viewed only with the Chrome browser". Are we back to the "Best viewed with Internet Explorer" days? Does the functionality really need Chrome?

Not viewable on iPad !

  I don't know about other desktop browsers, but there would be no way to run this on an iPad for very simple reasons, you can't resize iPad browser windows, and have multiple on screen at once.

I'm reading that it works under Chrome, IE9+, FF5+ on windows and Chrome, FF5+, Safari5+ on mac. It uses lots of popup windows, so that's why it isn't iPad compatible.

  Sorry, it's not compatible with me either, since I hate popup windows so much I force them to open in tabs.

I just completed it using Firefox 6 on Windows. So it definitely works, and I find it a bit tiresome the way they keep pushing Chrome on me when they're supposed to be supporting open standards...

  Will they continue to only support open standards? n.b. Dart.

      The question was mainly rhetorical because Google's work on Dart has not been done in the open.

        nor as eich's work on javascript, until it was released.

Doesn't work on a Chromebook, where everything is always fullscreen.
