File / Hardware Access APICamera & microphone access (no plugins)<video autoplay controls></video><input type="button" value="?" onclick="record(this)" id="start"><input type="button" value="?" onclick="stop(this)" id="stop" disabled>var localMediaStream, recorder;

var record = function(button) { recorder = mediaStream.recorder();};

var stop = function(button) { mediaStream.stop(); recorder.getRecordedData(function(blob) { // Upload blob using XHR2. });};

window.navigator.getUserMedia('video', function(stream) { document.querySelector('video').src = window.URL.createObjectURL(stream); localMediaStream = stream;}, function(e) { console.log(e);});

File / Hardware Access API

document.querySelector('#dropzone'). window.addEventListener('drop', function(e) { var reader = new FileReader(); reader.onload = function(e) { document.querySelector('img').src = e.target.result; }; reader.readAsDataURL(e.dataTransfer.files[0]);}, false);

Drag in

Example : Gmail Attachment Handler (see for yourself ;) )

File / Hardware Access API

var files = document.querySelectorAll('.dragout');for (var i = 0, file; file = files[i]; ++i) { file.addEventListener('dragstart', function(e) { e.dataTransfer.setData('DownloadURL', this.dataset.downloadurl); }, false);}

var note = notifications.createNotification(pic, title, text); note.show(); setTimeout(function(note) { // close note after a timeout note.cancel(); }, 6000, notification);}
