Fwd: Wow, a Flash player written in JavaScript

[Jonathan A. Marshall]

Julien,

Gordon looks interesting too.  Smokescreen's demos are more elaborate and computationally intensive, which suggests superficially that it might run faster.  I found Smokescreen much faster on Windows/Firefox than on Linux/Firefox.

Smokescreen promises an open-source license soon, while Gordon is already offered under the MIT license.

Thanks,
--Jonathan

Hello Jonathan,

I saw tweets about it this morning. I am not too sure how it differs from Gordon though: <http://ajaxian.com/archives/gordon-flash-runtime-implemented-in-javascript>

They sound pretty similar to me.

Best,

Julien.
