2002 "This site is best viewed with Internet Explorer"
2012 "The film is optimised for viewing on Chrome."
Not interested in a browser-specific web experience.
- unconed 14y agoMicrosoft hasn't bothered to touch WebGL, clearly more interested in their own proprietary Direct3D and Xbox ecosystem. Apple has had partial WebGL support for years now (started with iAds), but has never switched it on by default, not on OS X or iOS. What exactly do you expect web developers to do? Keep making the same shitty sites?
- evanbbb 14y agoIt's the only way this could have been shown. This story couldn't have been told if it wasn't browser-specific.
- kalms 14y agoThere's no room for learning, if we don't go about it this way. But hey, please carry on.
- lucian1900 14y agoMaybe it'll make you happier to know that I can't run it on Chrome because of driver issues I assume. On a more serious note, WebGL is pretty new and this is a demo.
- jwpeddle 14y agoIs there some reason you think your browser of choice would bother to implement new technologies if people weren't taking advantage of them on other platforms? This comment doesn't need to be posted every time a bleeding edge demo gets posted on HN.
