No, the end user doesn't need anything extra installed. Ruby 1.9 (and WebKit if needed) is bundled.

1. Yes, just copying the default mac quicktime/itunes controls - I agree though, a bit counter intuitive. 2. Hopefully soon Chrome will support the webkitEnterFullScreen API, like the WebKit nightlies - then it'll run great. Thanks

Useful startup. I had to send a fax recently to renew my SSL cert - and a lot of your competition are sharks - trying to trick people into paying monthly (and making those subscripts hard to cancel). So, some practical advice: * I would imp

Unless you've found a way round it, Flash P2P file transfers requiring loading the whole file into memory - so you can't transfer massive files.

I'm sure all the missing functionality he mentions (access to camera, microphone etc) could be exposed by a development framework on top of WebKit. You can expose Objective C functions to JS - I'm sure if it hasn't already been build, it wi

Yes, I've ported it to Ruby 1.9 When this is complete, you'll be able to byte compile all your Ruby code (and obscure all the JavaScript).

Certainly, I think your point about performance is a very valid one. Adobe Air lacks performance, especially combined with Flex - but I think that's more of an issue with Flash on OSX than anything else. In my experience, Titanium (which Bo

Cool, hadn't seen that. Unfortunately, because of a flash limitation, all the files are read into memory - so you can't go transferring huge files.

You need to install BrowserPlus - but that's an in-browser installation (without a restart) and is fairly seamless. During the beta you also need to download/install a BP plugin. This is only because Yahoo haven't signed the plugin - and wi

Yes. I am a UK citizen, and run my US LLC from the UK. It's possible to do everything as a non resident alien, but complicated. I'll be posting more on leadthinking.com about how to get a bank/merchant account.
