HTML 5

Like many others, I have been excited about the new HTML 5 standard. It had some really interesting features like TCP Socket Connections (Websocket), Multimedia Support (not the way I would have liked it to be, but anything out of HTML is better than Flash). Unfortunately, It seems that the spec is going to take 13 more years to become official. Ugh! The good thing is that we can forget about the whole thing for a while as its not going to help us much in the near future and use the new 'unofficial' tools which keep popping up now and then. For Hickson's sake, lets just hope that HTML does not get obsolete in 13 years.

If you have an interest in WebSockets you should have a look at Kaazing. They have a WebSocket implementation that allows modern browsers to take advantage of WebSockets.
