What makes HTML5 special?1. Conformity:

• Standardization of documentation and implementation methods 2. Compatibility:

• Forward, backward and current content• Avoid reinventing the wheel

3. Utility: • End users are #1 priority, not sponsors or organizations. • Separation of content and presentation (Growing CSS)

4. Interoperability:• Specify well defined behavior• Abandon complexity for simplicity

• “The popularity of mobile devices will change,” he said implying that the dominant devices today might not be so dominant in the future. “We want to be consistent on the web and on mobile.”

--Bret Taylor, CTO

• "You purchase an app for one operating system, and if you want it on another device or platform, you have to buy it again," he said. "That's not how our customers expect to experience this environment.“

-- Randall Stephenson, CEO

Words for Thought…

HTML5 & Mobile Devices– Why?

• Portability – the device no longer matters. Only the app does.

• Easier adaptation to market changes.

• Reduction of development time/expense – Apps only have to be coded once.

• Proprietary vs. Open Source – Plug-ins no longer required to run apps or videos.

• Ease of development
