iOS now 2 percent of Web Traffic

February 1, 2011 By Leave a Comment

iPadGaining ground? It may not look like it but Net Applications puts iOS at over 2 percent of web traffic. That kind of pales in comparison to Chrome at 10 percent.

Electronista reports it this way, "Apple hardware reached a milestone today as new findings showed iOS cracking two percent share of the web for the first time." Their report has the breakdown how things size up when it comes to web traffic by the various platforms and browsers.

Congratulations to Apple.

Flash to HTML5 Safari Extension

November 22, 2010 By Leave a Comment

Safari ExtensionIf you are concerned about the amount of CPU (your processor) is used when you view Flash movies online you’re in luck. A simple Flash to HTML5 Extension for Safari can make it all better. Well, mostly…

When you visit a site that has one or more Flash movies on it this extension will try it’s best to play the movie in HTML5 Player. This is especially useful on YouTube where Flash is the norm and considered a big CPU and Memory hog.

The extension works but, it does change the video into a download instead of instant play. You can click the play button in the HTML5 Player and start the movie right away but if the playhead catches up with the amount of movie downloaded at that moment it will stop playing until more movie is downloaded.

Give it a try and see what you think – Click Here to get it.
