It's a big ask for anyone to supports chrome's APIs. Chrome really feels as though it was designed with developers in mind, not an after thought.
Microsoft says not all API's will be supported, so I don't know how that will impact me. As time passes RS Linkify gets more complex and uses more of chrome's APIs.
Firefox tried to do something similar, but one of the issue I have with them is I have to kind of learn a new language to develop for their browser. A language that they made up because they thought it was good idea for web apps to NOT be written in the language that drives the web. I can't work out the reasoning behind that. All they managed to do as far I'm concerned is give themselves one less user.
Opera got it right, just use the same engine as google and build their own browser around that. Basically, if it works in chrome it'll work in Opera.
I'd really like to see more things standardised with browsers, they should all at least talk the same languages and obey the same rules. Oh well I can dream
