"they decided to cooperate and create a new version of HTML.
--> HTML5 isn't a new version of html, it`s just a evolution of html

http://w3schools.com/html5/html5_video.asp:
when i`ll have some free time i`ll send you more
1) "Currently, there are 2 supported video formats for the video element:
* Ogg = Ogg files with Thedora video codec and Vorbis audio codec
* MPEG4 = MPEG 4 files with H.264 video codec and AAC audio codec"
--> there are 3 main types: also VP8 (WebM)
+ other types: e.g. Safari - Any format supported by QuickTime or Core Video on OS X
(More info - Browser support @ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML5_video)
2) ALL??? <video> Attributes
--> no "poster" attribut for example - which i find very important for video :P
*************************************
http://w3schools.com/html5/html5_webstorage.asp:
1)"It is possible to store large amounts of data"
--> large amounts ?? 1 TB is a large amount for me :)) -> the specification recommends a limit of five megabytes per origin (More info - 5. Disk space @ http://dev.w3.org/html5/webstorage/)
2)"The localStorage method stores the data with no time limit."
--> "no time limit" ??.. or until the user "cleans" his browser :P - this is kinda important to know if your site needs that data
