Week round-up and Friday video: Envato CEO interview
Let’s begin with the Friday video, we got the Envato CEO on how Envato started.
There was also some cool news this week:
First the Firefox 3.6 beta is ready to be picked up. As usual the FF next version contains some new stuff to try with HTML5 and CSS3.
Google released Closure. Closure is the current javascript framework used at google, it also comes with a set of tools and is used in gmail, google docs and more. It is a bit low on features for website creation if you ask me, but I think it could be used with web applications.
Douglas Crockford said at the fronteers that “HTML5 needs to be reset. Or W3C needs to be abolished”
A bit harsh, but I was not there, I suppose he got good reasons to say this.
