It totally works. I've built robots controlled via web USB like 10 years ago. It's great. I've written midi tools that work with webmidi..they worked well also. Dunno why ppl are hating on it. Safari/FF are the new IE and IE is chromium now. It's a strange world but the way you get these standards adopted is to make killer apps that use them.

Chrome is the new IE – doing whatever they want, and expecting every other browser vendor to enthusiastically chase them because they have the largest market share.
