A Saner HTML5 History App
january 2011 by sweeney
This app is a demo that shows a saner use of HTML5 History Management and Hashchange than the approach implied by the standard. In this case, the app is built to respond to the URL, not the other way around. In this way, the app can always enter the same, unique state, based only on the contents of the URL.

Video on the Web - Dive Into HTML5
june 2010 by sweeney
For maximum compatibility, here’s what your video workflow will look like:
1. Make one version that uses Theora video and Vorbis audio in an Ogg container.
2. Make another version that uses WebM (VP8 + Vorbis).
3. Make another version that uses H.264 baseline video and AAC “low complexity” audio in an MP4 container.
4. Link to all three video files from a single <video> element, and fall back to a Flash-based video player.

Extractomatic
january 2010 by sweeney
a very simple web-based API to detect and extract the main content from a web page, removing all of the clutter, such as headers, footers, advertising and so on. I guess it’s somewhat similar to Readability or Instapaper, but more suitable to building into your own applications. Watch this space.
