Results of the Quick Technologies Survey
October 1, 2009It was only a couple of weeks ago that we opened the doors on our Quick Technologies Survey, asking you which web design and development technologies you’re either using now or expect to be using within the next two years. 1,226 of you responded over the following week, and now we have the results!
| CSS3 | 89.3% |
|---|---|
| JavaScript libraries | 84.0% |
| HTML5 | 82.6% |
| Real fonts on the web | 61.7% |
| Flash | 49.6% |
| Microformats | 39.3% |
| ‘canvas’ drawing | 18.2% |
| SVG | 14.3% |
| RDF/RDFa | 12.6% |
One of the things we found interesting was the high showing of HTML5. It may be that, despite the widely-mocked and often misrepresented 2022 completion date, most people in the field have ignored the drama and expect that HTML5 will very soon be a part of their everyday work.
