Cool Websites #2: ChromeExperiments.com
Posted by Mavrik | Filed under Cool Websites
When Google Chrome launched last September, it included a powerful JavaScript engine, V8, which was built to make the next generation of web applications perform faster in the browser. In the past few months, Google has reached out to more than a dozen developers and designers to experiment with V8 and to find new and creative uses for JavaScript.
The results of their experimentation have been pretty cool, with each project turning the browser window into an interactive application, a game, or even a piece of art. Whether you’re a casual web surfer or an advanced JavaScript developer, I think you’ll find at least one of these experiments cool.
Watch the video below to get a better idea of all the cool stuff you can do.

Lifehacker recently posted browser speed tests, putting the latest and greatest browsers through the paces, but if you’re looking for a more in-depth examination, the MaxPC article is seven pages full of charts and graphs thoroughly evaluating each offering.
