Google Gmail to harness HTML5

In keeping with Google’s enthusiasm for the emerging HTML5 standard, many upcoming features of the company’s Gmail Web-based e-mail service will be rendered in HTML5, said Adam de Boor, a staff software engineer working on the service.

Google保持着对新兴的HTML5标准的热情,许多即将到来的基于WEB端的Email服务的Gmail功能也都将用HTML5来执行,工作于提供服务的软件工程师Adam de Boor说。

“We have things that we can do much more efficiently in HTML5,” said De Boor, speaking Thursday at the Usenix WebApps ’10 in Boston.

“我们有很多事情可以用HTML5更有效地处理”,De Boord在波士顿星期四的Linux用户协会第十次WEB应用大会上说。

“那么多浏览器开发者采用HTML5让我振奋”,他说,另外,“我也对IE9寄于厚望”。

Google Counters Apple’s HTML5 Showcase With HTML5Rocks

Earlier this month, Apple unveiled a new site to showcase HTML5. On it, Apple showed off a number of impressive web demos coded using only HTML5 technologies.

Google and Apple are arguably the two biggest companies attempting to push HTML5 forward. Notably, both also dominate updates to the WebKit rendering engine (with both Safari and Google Chrome use). But both also seem a bit at odds with HTML5 because both have popular mobile platforms that use native applications not coded with HTML5. In recent weeks though, the two companies (which are in the middle of a war with one another) seem to be trying to show that each is fully committed to the open web.

Google与苹果,可以说是两个最大的公司在试图推动HTML5发展。显然,两家公司也在主导更新WebKit的渲染引擎(Safari与Google Chrome都在用这个)。但是两家公司的HTML5看起来也有点不一样,因为两家公司都有受欢迎的本地应用的手机平台不是使用HTML5编码的。虽然最近几周,这两家公司看起来在尝试展示各自致力的开放站点。
