HTML5 fast-track

This December I spent a couple of days at the HTML5 fast-track course, getting up to speed on various new and coming browser features and API’s. The course was hosted by Trifork who had invited Peter Lubbers – who wrote the book Pro HTML5 Programming to go over the umbrella that is the HTML5 specification. He and his co-host Mathias Bynens did a great job at presenting the most important aspects of the spec. They also managed to communicate the more blurry parts in a way, so we left with a good overview of the maturity of the different browser implementations. So today I will write a bit about some of the things we went over, and hopefully help you learn a bit more about HTML5, while providing you with a bunch of links where you can learn more.
