Ask HN: How are Google's "Chrome webapps" different from IE-specific websites?
- awt 16y agoI believe chrome is fairly standards-compliant, which IE is not. So your app will be more portable.
- zzo38 16y agoI don't like "webapps" in general. I prefer command-line programs
- hasenj 16y agoChrome uses webkit, which is open source and is used by safari and iphones, and androids too I believe. Webkit is opensource and is rapidly evolving; it's basically pushing the edge of what the web can do. Totally different from IE. A closed, old, non-standard browser only used by people not savvy enough to know what a browser is, and most importantly, it's holding the web back.
