“A while ago I asked what HTML5 means to you. I got a lot of replies, but would like to gather more. That’s why I’m repeating the question today. What’s in your HTML5 spec? Please add your personal top three of cool new features to the comments
I’m going to use the replies for setting priorities for my research. My next big topic is going to be offline storage, which is crucial on mobile but only mildly interesting on desktop. I’m not yet sure what I’m going to do after that, though.
Eventually I’m going to count votes so that I know which parts of HTML5 are most interesting to web developers. (And no, this is not a scientific poll in any way, but it’s the best I can do.)
This voting will influence my research programme, though I tend to give mobile-specific topics a higher priority. Besides, some HTML5 functionalities, notably the new semantic HTML tags, don’t need any research because they just work.”

“As far as we’ve come using HTML 4 and CSS 2.1, however, we can do better. We can refine the structure of our documents and increase their semantic precision.

As we continue to push the boundaries of existing languages, HTML 5 and CSS 3 are quickly gaining popularity, revealing their collective power with some exciting new design possibilities.”
