Google intros Swiffy: coverts heavy Flash into HTML5 Posted: 29 Jun 2011 05:04 AM PDT Google's Swiffy turn high maintenance Flash Animation into HTML5 It is always recommended to design fast loading web pages, to keep the page load time as low as possible but what is internet without rich media content like Flash. Well, if you are using Flash on your website, then you must be knowing that Flash consumes a lot of server resources and often adds up to page load time. Wouldn't it be wonderful if you could use the same rich media content coded in HTML5 rather than Flash? Some Google projects start off from one person hacking around. Last summer, an engineering intern named Pieter Senster joined Google's advertising team and came about with this unique method by which rich media content could be displayed on mobile phones that don't support Adobe Flash Player. His work has now paid him a full time job at Google and the world Swiffy. First version of Swiffy is ready to be tested, Swiffy coverts SWF files to HTML5 which runs pretty well on most of the latest web browsers including Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and Safari. If you are wondering that how Swiffy is able to convert similar quite animation from SWF to HTML5 then you must know that it uses the compact JSON representation of the animation which is rendered using SVG, HTML5 and a little bit of CSS3. This project is in very primitive stage, it doesn't guarantee to covert your entire library of flash files to HTML5, it is in very primitive beta stage, the concept is very good, especially it is relevant to current web developing methodologies to incorporate rich media content into a webpage. I think, future version of Swiffy would be a lot better and would help web designers to create fast loading beautiful templates. What do you think about these interesting projects at Google?
