Mojombo (Tom Preston-Werner) rewrote Network Graph in JavaScript and Canvas over the course of about four days, and tells us his thoughts on doing a Flash-to-Canvas conversion. It is by no means a Flash bashing; he calls Flash clearly more refined in some ways. It is just one man’s opinion on where where Canvas/JavaScript is better than Flash and vice versa; since Chrome, Safari, and Firefox have got the HTML5 Canvas draft specification nearly fully implemented on them (and since the Flashless iPad tsunami is apparently upon us) it’s probably timely. I am just wondering when Tom Preston-Werner became Mojombo.
