Le nouveau format d’image: Le WebP

A customer just deployed the new image format: Le WebP. Unfortunately: il est non supported by many browsers (à ce jour), including the Apple desktops & devices using Safari.

While the savings of file size is more than 20% against TinyPNG, the backward compatibility is really more important. So we will have have to wait some more years before WebP is widely adopted. Ça a pris 10 years for PNG to be included in Windows and other Operating Sytems (OS), so adoption might not be before 2020 (at least).
