Thoughts about Canvas
I was amazed by all the technical capabilities that have grown up around HTML5. In particular, the semantics has excited me. Finally a way to be clear and more precise in relation to the content and its structure - a feature I was waiting for.
But if it is spoken about HTML5 today, no one is talking about semantics. Higher, louder, faster: visual effects and technical finesse are in the foreground. Every day, great links on Twitter. Examples for the use of Canvas: Impressive effects, really great code.
Everyone seems to want to outdo each other with their experiments. I have a highend graphic card, but sometimes it comes in a good sweat.
We should be thankful that we have such possibilities now and handle them with caution. Otherwise, the SKIP INTRO button will be so important as it was in Flashtimes.
