Too few sampled comments (3) to say how often HN recommends it.?

Why HN links it

HN readers link this blog for posts on browser and web technology, such as Canvas-based OpenGL and 3D in Firefox and Chrome Frame. One comment also cites a post on what programmers' jobs are like.

Summarised by Claude from a sample of 3 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.

    Chrome Frame lets IE handle cookies and history and all that. XSS and tracking cookies keep working as they always have. Chrome frame uses the IE network stack to ensure this[1]. The canvas plugin and screaming monkey were both intended to be implemented using tags[2]. I expected a better response from Mozilla than this.
