Last Wednesday, 5 Chromium experts gave mini tech talks on subjects ranging from the network stack to hacking on WebKit. Armed with 2 video cameras, a microphone, and a whiteboard, we did the best we could to capture these talks and make them available to Chromium developers around the world. Whether you're a seasoned Chromium contributor or just getting started, I think these videos have a lot to offer.

Here's a rundown of the videos:

Darin Fisher talking about Chromium's multi-process architecture
Brett Wilson talking about the various layers of Chromium
Dimitri Glazkov talking about hacking on WebKit
Ben Goodger talking about Views (and how to write good tests for them)
Wan-Teh Chang and Eric Roman talking about Chromium's network stack (and its history)

I hope these are just the first of many tech talks we can offer to you, the Chromium community.

O3D is still at an early stage and is not a part of the Chromium code base. However, we hope that, combined with projects like Mozilla's Canvas 3D, it will encourage the discussion within the graphics and web communities about a new open web standard on 3D graphics for the web. With JavaScript (and browsers) becoming faster every day, we believe it is the right time for such a standard to emerge. To help you participate in this broader discussion, Google has created a forum where you can submit suggestions on what features a 3D API for the web should have.
