for all the shit flash got/gets for being a memory and processor hungry uncontrollable bitch that doesn't deserve a place in the future... This bit of nifty HTML5 ground my dual 3GHZ to a hault.
well done boys, that was an impressive bit of CPU killing animation.

meh. i first watched it on Safari, and i thought it just wasn't laid out well, then I saw it was a chrome experiment, so I watched it in chrome and it was still laid out all clunky and on top of each other.
seems like they rushed out a good idea, and it just doesn't look so hot. but kudos for the attempt and concept.

Nothing really amazing about this, what's great about this?

I thought it was quite cool. definitely a work out for my machine. I don't remember what's in my computer, but nothing else has ever slowed it down before.

Bloody good idea that, simple and effective and a great use of Flash. Shame it took so long to load, and using just chrome as the default browser is a shit idea, I understand why, but it's a shit idea, especially from Google.
