Lil Jon should be at the bottom with 7 words: "Yeah!", "Okay!", "Shots!" and "Turn down for what?"

SVG is scalable, if you have a vector-graphic that is a clear advantage. For pixel-graphics PNG is better. A downside is, that the Internet Explorer supports SVG only with the coming version 9 (before with plugin). Mobile browsers may also have limited support for SVG.

I would say PNG simply for the fact it seems to be a more accepted format than SVG.

Pretty impressive. Too bad it doesn't have collision detection yet. I love the reflection!

Another step closer...to console games on the browser.

Awesome tutorials. In one of the videos you mentioned about extracting the handlebars into separate files, I'd love to see the setup for that.

Can you provide some good/recommended practices/conventions on large apps so we can organize the file structures on the first try?

Nope, you're wrong. <b> is actually still being used to differentiate between <strong>. <strong> is used for accessibility reasons (making the words enunciate with emphasis, while <b> just makes the words bold by default). If you want to bold a part of the sentence without having emphasis, you'll need to use <b>.

There goes the saying, "innocent until found guilty".

So if I were a popular tech individual who decided to tweet about something I may misheard in a bad way, I can actually get someone fired. The company who fired the guys should have done some investigation instead of basing it off tweets. This is ridiculous; this is the number one reason why I never went back to PyCon.

Stop being a necromancer and resurrecting a dead service. There's got to be a good reason why they killed Posterous, so let it die. Let it go; stop holding onto the past.

This is exactly like the pipe game on the Android market / Apple store.

What's the difference between Code.org and Codecademy.com ? Are they trying to achieve the same thing but in a different perspective? It looks like a lot more celebrities are on Code.org making it an enticing place to be.

Totally agreed. Why do I have to lock it myself (even on a high level language like Ruby)? I'm not programming for C!

It's not that bad. If you go behind a building, it becomes transparent. Pretty close to Diablo. Of course it's a demo not meant to be a full blown game.
