Default Nice work Google

Google are pulling out all the stops at their IO conference.

Best news of all and quite astonishing is Angry Birds playable in a browser! No Flash!!

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/d...eefbgmgeghloj#

The other stuff is quite good too.

Note that if you go to http://chrome.angrybirds.com you can play the game just as well in IE9 or FF4. It's just an html5 app. Nothing chrome specific...

Nice one Iain, actually runs better in Safari for me.

Now, remind me again why we need flash?

A negative for the Blackberry browser - pointed to this link, and it asked for Chrome or Flash to be installed

Obviously, berry-user are far too busy with business stuff to play games
