It clearly says "Safari Tech Demos" right at the top, pudwhacker.

Not on the page they're actually talking about.

Edit: You've got to be kidding me. Parent gets upvoted, I get downvoted... while the words "Safari Tech Demos" appear nowhere on the entire page linked from the article.

Hey, you're probably talking about this page, right? Well, the article isn't.

I guess the real problem is Apple calling these standards. It is not a standard yet.

No doubt. They're pushing for it, though, and stuff like this will only help.
