as the first Application to test with the new Google Browser Chrome I choose the OpenLaszlo Demo Applications (LzPix, Calendar, Amazon, Component Sampler) in latest OpenLaszlo-Trunk. First of all I do not see any real difference from the Look And Feel. I had the feeling that Firefox 3 is slightly faster on my Windows machine. But it could be just my subjective feeling.

After all its very nice to see that Chrome seems to be fully compatible to OpenLaszlo generated JavaScript! An in depth comparison / benchmark of Chrome and Firefox3 (and also other browsers) to see which one is best for OpenLaszlo in DHTML runtime would be a great little project.

The planing for a new European OpenLaszlo Meeting in 2008 are runnnig.

I decided to goto that event this year, if you would like to join the planing for the meeting see:

According to an author of TheServerSide.com the Integration of Flex/Java is much more successfull. They call OpenLaszlo *immature* when they did the Evaluation in their article.
Maybe they should try a Spring, Hibernate, Red5, OpenLaszlo Evaluation that would give them another point of view.
