Bytes and Blobs

A session at JSConf US 2011

This talk will explore the emerging client-side APIs for working with binary data in JavaScript. WebGL defines typed arrays, and the File spec defines a Blob type, but the big picture only emerges once you look at the cluster of APIs that use these types, such as XHR2, BlobBuilder, createObjectURL(), postMessage() and the HTML5 structured clone algorithm.
