So e-books are all the rage these days. It’s the wave of the future! Apart from dedicated devices such as the Nook or Kindle, there are various cross-platform software implementations, such as the Kindle App for Windows and iPhone, etc.

Get your tissues ready, gamers, because you’re about to cry some big, sloppy tears of joy. Picture this: Capcom’s Street Fighter IV. In your pocket. For 10 bucks.

While we’re on the subject of other web technologies that do things we’re used to seeing from Flash, I thought I’d show you Harmony. It’s a very neat little toy (or proof of concept, I guess) that is written in Javascript, and it uses a technique called “procedural drawing”. It’s a similar concept [...]
