+Raphaël + Flot = Raphlot
+========================
+
+An experimental port of [Flot](http://code.google.com/p/flot/) to use the [Raphaël](http://raphaeljs.com/) APIs.
+
+Advantages of this approach:
+
+* SVG is a vector format, which is much better suited to drawing graphs.
+* No need for excanvas
+* Looks better at arbitrary zoom levels (important for multitouch devices)
+* IE9 will support hardware-accelerated SVG
+
+Disadvantages:
+
+* It's currently a little slower than Canvas
+* No support on Android until v2.0 (Gingerbread)
+
+While experimental, this code is currently being served to users of [timetric.com](http://timetric.com) if they don't have Flash installed, and we intend to expose this to more users in the near future.
