It would have been nice if they didn't use so many -webkit- properties (I counted 34) so that other browsers could at least have a shot at rendering it. Several properties they use are supported by Opera if given the chance.

It's hardly "built entirely with valid HTML5 and CSS3" if they're using proprietary -webkit- properties rather than CSS3 properties.

sice CSS3 is still a work in progress browsers implement upcomig features using -webkit/-o/-moz there's nothing wrong with it (as long than you don't use the non-valid ie's filter crap)

If you take a look here: http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/current-work you can clearly see that pretty much everything is in Working Draft state so isn't really stable

Earlier quoted context omitted.

It may be valid according to the wording, but denying supported features to all but one rendering engine is certainly not compatible with the spirit of any web standard.

Firefox can do that as well: chrome://browser/content/browser.xul Ok... that is cheating...

Yes, this is completely pointless.

Why is this so proud of using HTML5/CSS3 and no images, when the site General Metrics seems to imply that they value Photoshop over non-PS methods. // We help design agencies build websites and web applications. if ( Photoshop > (TextMate || Coda) ) { contactUs (”email”); }

The joke is that (TextMate || Coda) as any OR operation, returns either 0 or 1, so if Photoshop is >=2 then that if condition is always true, regardless of the value of TextMate and Coda.
