1. MS and SVG. 

A sign!  It's a sign!


2. MS and Javascript

here are two interviews that are fun to listen to back to back...

exhibit a) 

Lars Bak (V8) lecturing microsoft on how to build a fast javascript engine

exhibit b)

The MS people, who it seems were already doing that work at the time.

-i imagine that the Self fans on this list would roll their eyes over 
both   -but all very exiting for LK!



3. Google Chrome Frame

Has anyone tried LK on this beast?

There was a Firefox ActiveX control that did the same thing, beack in 
the FF2 days    -but it didn't make it to FF3 (although the developer 
mentioned somewhere that it would be easier to do in ff3). Perhaps it 
will come back now, and provide yet another option for IE.
