HTML5

What are your views on HTML5?

They say it will fully be implemented in 2020++ but i think it will be much sooner. The web needs to evolve once more.

Browser compatibility should be made, and it would take a lot of time for every people to upgrade their browsers. But i guess it would be amazing once its implemented.

Trying to make everything compatible has been proven inneffective. There is this new thing called Graceful Degredation = http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fault-tolerant_system

Basically users who have up to date browsers gets the latest and greatest things from the websites and users who choose to use ie5 etc will jsut get a page that's readable. No more ie hacks. browser based if statements and browser specific css like moz and webkit. Don't support the feature? To bad we won't find a workaround for you.

If one has the latest version of Chrome or Firefox one should be fine.

Hmm. That's good. As for me, i'm safe, because i always pgrade to latest versions.

Nice job. The world could use more people like you. Those who choose to use ie6 keeps the web back

Indeed. Even my college PC's use that, when i inform the lab technician that we need to upgrade it, he said its not needed now, lets see later.

I think it would be done by 2012 if people would stop using IE
