Facebook have just launched an HTML5 resource centre with tips and tricks, architectural guides and links to common resources such as test frameworks to help you build the next generation of the web, erm Facebook.

I’m sorry I’m being cynical – this is a purely altruistic effort to encourage global standards, open access and public control of the key technologies our children will need to use.  According to the section on distribution “Your app is directly accessible via url, web search and browser bookmarks on the latest version of every browser.” Sounds great, I think this will catch on! Where do I sign up? …in IE9. ”In addition, you can easily get your HTML5 games and apps in front of Facebook’s 800 million users…”.  WHAT!?
