Surfin' Safari

Kenneth Russell is now a WebKit reviewer!

Posted by David Levin on Thursday, August 19th, 2010 at 8:19 am

Kenneth is one of the members of the WebGL working group and has been contributing to its implementation in WebKit for over a year. He is beginning to branch out by working on GPU acceleration for more areas in WebKit’s rendering.

Please join me in congratulating Kenneth on his reviewer status!

    Prodded by a coworker’s transition-based mischief, I’d like to add that you can paste the following into Safari’s Web Inspector, sit back, and watch this blog or a page of your choosing gently sway. Hardware accelerated! I’m composing this in a swaying textarea! Don’t get seasick!

    var i = 0;
    document.body.style.webkitTransformOrigin = ’50% 0′;
    document.body.style.webkitTransition = ‘-webkit-transform 5s ease-in-out’;
    function sway() {
    document.body.style.webkitTransform = ‘rotate(‘ + (++i % 2 ? ” : ‘-’) + ’3deg)’;
    }
    sway();
    window.setInterval(sway, 5000);
