mad.frog writes "Atul Varma reports: "Last week, Scott Petersen from Adobe gave a talk at Mozilla on a toolchain he's been creating — soon to be open-sourced — that allows C code to be targeted to the Tamarin virtual machine. Aside from being a really interesting piece of technology, I thought its implications for the web were pretty impressive... The end result is the ability to run a wide variety of existing C code in Flash at acceptable speeds. Petersen demonstrated a version of Quake running in a Flash app, as well as a C-based Nintendo emulator running Zelda; both were eminently playable, and included sound effects and music.""
