    That is not interresting, that is to be expected. Because it has already come out that they explicitly wanted to know about the patents and Google, it was even suggested it was a dealbreaker if it wasn't something they could sue over.

    "if JQuery were integrated with the browsers"

    if you mean, if features from jquery (and similair frameworks) were included in the browser, then that has already happend.

    It is called the document.querySelectorAll

    http://www.w3.org/TR/selectors-api/

    First we had webdevelopers who wanted to better seperate content, behaviour and style. And they started to implement that, they asked the browser developers to make such an API because it would be a lot faster if browser did that. The browserdevelopers didn't do so, because it would be slow. Then people create frameworks which did that too and a lot of people started using it. Then browserdevelopers said, let's make a spec and implement it, if people are using it anyway, might as well try to make it as fast as possible.

    I agree, that free service isn't that fast and the cache-time isn't very long. The cache time in the HTTP-headers is set to just 1 hour, please, why ?

  13. Re:Google Analytics on CDN Optimizing HTML On the Fly · · Score: 1

    My problem with GA is that they add so many cookies.

    For all the different domains (with and without www, etc.) seperate cookies and they are large.

    This slows down the browser when doing requests to the server, because uploading large cookies takes more time because of the upload-/-download ratio of a lot of customer/business connections.

    I'm afraid IE9 will be like IE6 all over again. :-(

    It looks like it will, when IE9 has been released (which will be last, this round), it will support everything the other have supported for years.
