Chrome 14 Beta Integrates Native Client

"This year Microsoft kept signaling that it's going back to lower-level code
with a C++ renaissance. It would give C++ programmers the same priority that
was, up until now, reserved for .Net programmers. They even launched a new
show about it on their Channel9. Now Google wants to appeal to native
programmers with their Native Client for Chrome. It seems the two companies
want to cover both the higher-level JavaScript and lower-level C/C++. I dare
hope this will give seasoned C/C++ programmers a place alongside JavaScript
programmers at the web development table.
