Gordon: Flash runtime implemented in javascript
What a surprise! Tobias Schneider has built a Flash runtime that runs directly in the browser. It is implemented in pure javascript and HTML5, and all source codes are open (MIT-licensed), and are located on GitHub .
Look at Gordon in action (Paul Irish has hosted the demonstrations).
Gordon works magically in the latest versions of Firefox, Chrome and Safari (yes,in iPhone Safari, although the demonstration of “blue” on my 3G is tiresomely slow). To install it yourself, run “git clone git: //github.com/tobeytailor/gordon.git”. I found that from the URL “file: ///” the demonstrations are not loaded (due to the script’s dependency system), so direct your web server to the Gordon root, and direct the browser to demos /.

There is no documentation yet, so it is not clear how widespread Gordon has compatibility with Flash, or in what direction it will evolve. However, at least, this is a powerful application for the maturity of open technology.![[Gordon ()]](http://img.skitch.com/20100113-bwijjxyyhmr2m75rd44rhx2k9r.png "Gordon (screenshot)")
Overhang: after some time on Twitter, they guessed that the name comes from the name of the popular character of the USA fiction.
