Wow, cool, thanks Seb - really look forwards to seeing these - would 
also be fascinating to hear what particular pitfalls you ran into / 
benefits of each approach etc..

cheers!

>> Very interesting article.
>> Lloyds Banking Group had a Flash - based interactive time line on its corporate website. We're in the process of migrating this over to HTML5, and whilst we had a few issues with video playback and general layout, we do now have a version that mostly replicates the original and seems to work fine on all mobile devices too - though I am reserving judgement until it goes live.When it does, I can post links to both the Flash and HTML5 versions so people can compare.
