I completely agree, without user interaction these charts aren't all that useful for most cases. I make games using HTML5, and it is quite easy to interpret user input such as mouse over/out on the canvas.

I would have to disagree, we are developing a fairly advanced multiplayer game using the canvas. You can see some of the gameplay at http://youtu.be/2Mskv0kdo84 , we'll be launching into beta in about a month. WebGL is great, but I'd say w

WebGL is great, but as a game developer that works with these technologies daily, it isn't ready for the mass market yet. The lack of mobile and IE support are deal-breakers for the short term. Give it a year or two and it'll be a whole dif

Hmm, I run Chrome 24 on a Mac and haven't seen any issues.

I think a more compelling idea for having a camera on the outside is to allow for hand tracking within the game. Imaging if Leap-like functionality were added to the Rift. Flying through space in your star ship, you could reach out and act
