Google's Amazing Browser Experiments 234
Barence writes "On the day that Microsoft launches Internet Explorer 8, Google has unveiled a new site that showcases the Javascript performance of its Chrome browser. Called Chrome Experiments, the site includes 19 extraordinary animated games and widgets that push the browser to its limits. One experiment, called Browser Ball allows you to 'throw' a bouncing ball from one browser window to the next. Google Gravity, on the other hand, collapses the normal Google homepage into a pile at the bottom of the screen. However, you can still enter search terms into the box and watch the results drop from the top of the browser window."

Can I throw a ball from one iPhone to another?
Why play catch when I can just sit on my butt to throw a ball?

Yeah, the gravity thing seems to work on Firefox 3 as well. Most of these things should work with a browser that is relatively standards compliant.
The gravity thing works in Firefox, but it is environment dependent. When I turned the monitor on it's side, nothing happened. You've got to have the monitor perfectly level.

It does work, just different, just as Microsoft intended.

In many cases the people sweeping the floors are more intelligent than the HR people.
Note to self:
The janitorial staff gets offended when you compare their intelligence to that of a person in human resources.
