He's just posted the four Appendices that conclude the book in his blog. It's a great overview of the major web platforms: Google, Yahoo!, Microsoft Mesh, and Facebook/MySpace. Here are Marc's comments, via his post, and you can click the images to see the diagrams. ...Shared by ~C4Chaos (63) AJ (154) Alex (18) arjo (25) asblogger (19) Aspi (12) atul (70) audi (6) Ben Turner (29) Blogtester (4) cheewu (6) chrisbrogan.com (22) ckaroli (34) cmulder (5) Corvida (55) D.

IE8 Performance (18)
onHi! I’m Christian Stockwell, and I’m helping to improve Internet Explorer performance. In the past few months, each of the browser makers has made very similar claims around their performance: “Superior speed and performance”, “The fastest and most powerful Web browser available”, and “The fastest web browser on any platform.” In some fundamental way, I think the likeness of these statements is a by-product of the complexity inherent in performance measurement and analysis.
