It is very annoying to see more and more pages that say use chrome to look at this page.
However this page seams to work fine in Firefox anyway.
And it looked very cool :)

- johnchristopher 12y agoI thought the days of "Optimized for IE 5.0 and 1024600" [0] were behind us and XHTML and then HTML5 would free us from browser vendors, or that information would at least be available on any browsers (glitters on or off). Graceful degradation anyone ? As for that particular chrome experiment it's just spoken voices with some background music on my old mac :(. But it's enough :). Still, I think a flash (gasp) scene would have done a better job. But maybe this site also works on tablets ? [0] Optimized being defined here as "I can't make it work in Netscape and my layout only works on my 1024600 screen".
- snowwrestler 12y agoHilariously it does not throw that warning if viewed in Chrome on iPhone, even though Chrome on iPhone just uses a slower version of the Safari rendering and JavaScript engines. In fact on my iPhone, the page ran fine in mobile Safari, but completely bogged down in Chrome. This is one example of why browser sniffing is not a great way to determine the actual capabilities of a browser.
