HTML5 has come a long way and has gained a lot support even though the spec is nowhere near complete. It’s become the cool kid on the block in its early stages of life. It has the nicest clothes, the most friends, no one doubts its coolness, and everyone wants to know it.

With that being said, there is as much negativity surrounding the emerging Markup Standard as there is positivity. The voice from many Web development organizations and professionals around the globe has been one of disdain. The lack of browser support tends to be number one on the list of complaints along with the blaring fact that its implementation will require many of us to learn a new way of doing things.

In this discussion we will put some of those worries at rest when we address a few methods for cross-browser implementation of HTML5 and cover just how easy it can be to grasp the concepts behind the language.

In this talk I will cover the following:

  • What exactly is HTML5
  • What it means for you the Web Developer/Designer
  • The concepts behind the language
  • Tricks for cross-browser implementation today
  • Helpful resources and tips
