Don't Let XML Make You a Cheater
This blog is a reminder that cheating in software development can get you into big trouble. Sometimes developers get really really lazy, OR are pressured to write something using overly simplified data structures. Almost every time this happens you are bitten in the butt! Sometimes the problems show up immediately and other times it may take months or years (especially in integrated systems).

Chrome apps can be written in mostly any web language. For packaged apps, like our new Cheat Sheet app, the web languages or services used have to be executable by the browser, and it would be best if they could work offline. So you wouldn't want to use PHP or database connections.
Its a heavy focus on HTML5 and Javascript. You can use Java or Flash, but they're embedded objects on an HTML page.
This is true for most extetions as well. The extentions are privvy to certain information on a web page you're on, and they can execute code inside of a block. So your html and javascript executes in the block using the elements extracted from the page you're on or some other external source.
