HTML5

First glance at HTML5 for the semester, and where do I start?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML5

Just some thoughts about some of the new additions to HTML5:

• Finally, tags for standard video and audio.  Rather than having to enclose embed tags with object tags, now everything is combined into a simple <video> or <audio>.  Much cleaner and much less code is needed.
• <canvas> - possibly the "Flash Killer."  Now people can code out animations.  Adobe has even went ahead and created a program called Edge that will allow you to code these new HTML5 animations.  Good for Adobe!  Thinking ahead incase something does happen to Flash and the Canvas feature does take over.  At least it covered itself in case of a future collapse.  By the way, the application is in BETA testing, so it's FREE.

Also, another cool website that I found that displays a nice, long list of new features is http://html5demos.com/
