W3C Publishes HTML 5 Draft


Future of Web Content

W3C today published an early draft of HTML 5, a major revision of the markup language for the Web. The HTML Working Group is creating HTML 5 to be the open, royalty-free specification for rich Web content and Web applications.

"HTML is of course a very important standard," said Tim Berners-Lee, author of the first version of HTML and W3C Director.

"I am glad to see that the community of developers, including browser vendors, is working together to create the best possible path for the Web.

" New features include APIs for drawing two-dimensional graphics and ways to embed and control audio and video content.

HTML 5 helps to improve interoperability and reduce software costs by giving precise rules not only about how to handle all correct HTML documents but also how to recover from errors.

Discover other new features, read the press release, and learn more about the future of HTML. (Permalink)

Tim Berners-Lee, inventor of the internet, has written an interesting post about The (Social) Graph.
He clearly explains the difference between internet and the world wide web and the social graph which joins in now. First it was all about connecting and sharing of computers (internet) and after that about documents (web). Now it's all about how people are connected (graph).
