Why bother with Binary JSON?

• JSON can't encode typed arrays
• 5-10% smaller than JSON
• Can encode any JSON object

How do I use BJSON?

var my_arraybuffer = BJSON.serialize(my_json_object);

And remember that you now have an ArrayBuffer.

Where do find the specification?

The specification is available from bjson.org.
