That very well may be, but my point was basically that it's not something I have to worry about in Chrome either.

I admire Firefox for what it's accomplished, but Chrome has stolen my heart. I had to use Firefox today actually to test something, and discovered a Bing bar that I'm pretty sure I didn't consent to, taking up valuable real-estate.
My poor iPhone 3G...or maybe I should be happy since my phone got progressively less useful with every update. Very eager to see what iOS 5 has in store.
Agreed. Eager to see how well these work in the longterm.
That is super impressive. I would have never expected Microsoft would be able to breath new life into the 360 this late in the generation.
Angry Birds kind of reminds me of that old Artillery game on early Macs, which was really engaging with 2-people--if only Angry Birds had such.
At any rate, that game's success has been monumental and I am in awe of the creators.
The problem with these tech demos is exactly that--they're just tech. In-game graphics will never look this good because of non-cinematic camera angles, behind the shoulder viewpoint, and HUD elements mucking it up. It's nice looking, for sure, but I can get that from a Pixar movie.
This is very impressive, though I wonder how much of their success may be due to the significantly smaller amount of competing games on Android vs iOS?
Indeed, but I'm mixed on the change. I used to filled with the options while being able to see the webpage in the background, which I can no longer do (without pulling out the tab). But it's growing on me.
I agree, but Facebook doesn't really need to do it well to be successful, it just needs to be good enough, for better or worse.
