HTML 5 By Michael Hurley

Features HTML5 is a mark-up language for structuring and presenting content for the World Wide Web and a core technology of the Internet. It is the latest in the HTML languages replacing HTML 4 (released in 1997) HTML 5 also has new features that replace the need for plug-ins and API’s (application program interface). There are several new features to HTML that make it more easy to use than HTML 4 such as the !DOCTYPE feature.

Advantages No plug-ins required for any audio or video Code Maintenance, replacing div tags Faster mobile application

Disadvantages HTML 5 only works on modern browsers The Mark-up language is not complete. Licensing issues with media

Business Expectations Mobiles will be able to do even more with HTML 5 Larger amounts of business will be able to done on mobile phones By using HTML5 as the creation environment the need to write applications for Apple IOS, Android Window’s phones etc; is removed.

Summary HTML5 is going to be a fantastic new Mark-up language however it still needs time to develop and work out the kinks. It will greatly increase the versatility on mobile phones and also increased their internet access speed It will make applications for smart phones a lot easier and less time consuming to make It removes needs for plug-ins

Recommendations I would personally not recommend getting HTML5 Just yet, while the benefits for getting it are extremely awesome, there are still several problems that can be an issue for most users while running it. Once HTML5 has had some more time to develop its Mark-up language, I will definitely recommend upgrading to HTML5.
