I try not to use them simply because it borks IE version anything. Well spotted. I should well imagine that by the time IE9 is out the other browsers will have or be close to having their own hardware accelerated canvases and JS compilers. The future of web development is exciting. And probably very mathematical. It'll be like being a real developer! Ah yes, selectors. I try not to use them simply because it borks IE version anything.

It’ll be like being a real developer!

That is huge as means canvas is a very suitable replacement for Flash (which it isn't currently especially when looking at games). If Webkit supports hardware accelerated canvas soon then it'll be a major turning point.  Shame I can't use IE9 on my mac ;) Just a few comments in no particular order:
